Publisher's Synopsis
In the haunting woods of Maine, an unimaginable horror unfolds in "Echoes in Porcelain"-a tale soaked in fear, despair, and supernatural terror. An ordinary family is cast into a chilling nightmare when their beloved daughter Emily inexplicably vanishes, leaving only a disturbingly lifelike porcelain doll in her wake.
Emily's distraught parents, Caroline and Thomas, are forced to grapple with a horrifying revelation. The porcelain doll is more than an eerie reminder of their missing child-it is their child. Their daughter, now trapped in a fragile porcelain casing, blinks and weeps, sending chilling echoes throughout their once peaceful home. This unsettling transformation ties them to a malevolent entity known as the Puppeteer-an ancient force lurking within the small-town shadows, infamous for turning innocent children into living dolls. As the nights grow darker, Caroline and Thomas find themselves in the Puppeteer's twisted game, their desperate struggle to save Emily becoming a symphony of horror that pushes them to the brink of madness. Seeking answers in local lore and the wisdom of a reclusive shaman-the Guardian-they uncover a potential ritual that could restore Emily's humanity. Yet this comes at an unthinkable price-a life for a life. A terrifyingly personal connection to the Puppeteer comes to light, revealing their family's ancestral guilt and amplifying their internal conflict, forcing them to confront their deepest fears.
