Gutter Puppets (Paperback)

Paperback. In the shadowed corridors of a decaying Brooklyn tenement, where walls whisper with the weight of forgotten lives and peeling plaster hides older secrets, Tiffany Chen clings to her camera like a talisman against erasure. Haunted by her father's sudden vanishing and the slow dissolution of her mother's spirit, she has made documentation her creed: every frame a bulwark against oblivion, every negative a refusal to let the world forget. But some buildings remember too well. When a chance discovery draws Tiffany deeper into the crumbling architecture of 1847 Myrtle Avenue, the boundary between observer and observed begins to dissolve. An antique marionette with glass eyes and an aristocratic leer becomes both confidant and harbinger. Strange threads weave through the walls. Neighbors drift into silence. And the building itself seems to breathe, to watch, to hunger for something only a witness like Tiffany can provide. Steeped in rot and red-lit darkrooms, Gutter Puppets is a cold gothic descent into obsession, memory, and the terrible price of being truly seen. In a place where disappearance is mercy and documentation is damnation, one young woman must decide how far she will go to ensure nothing - and no one - is ever forgotten again.
