  When Fiona and James Brett move into their fashionable London home, they discover the attic room harbours a dark and deadly secret. James locks himself away inside, ostensibly to take up oil painting, but he soon becomes moody, even violent. Local prostitutes are being attacked, and then the Bretts’ Polish cleaner is murdered. Another murder soon follows and this time it is even more close to home. James’s former lover is found mutilated, mirroring the Whitechapel killings of over a century ago. 
  Could James be responsible, or is the evil of Jack the Ripper’s crimes casting its shadow over him?

  Murdered By Death 
  "Who killed her?" asked Reynard. 
  "A grim reaper," said the Necromantor. 
  "Lancelot, why did you kill her?" said Mortimer, turning on his son. 
  "It wasn't me! Why does everyone always blame me when they see a dead person," protested the Necromancer. 
  "Because you are usually the killer, you psycho," said Mortimer. 
  "I am not guilty now," said the Necromancer. 
  "It wasn't him the reaper spoke, he had a deep bass-baritone-sounding voice," said the Necromantor. 
  "I can't go that low," said Lance, the Necromancer who was a light tenor. 
  "Oh, looks like we have work to do on our side, Uncle Rey," Mortimer, who was also the local coroner, said, "We'll deal with it!"

  Sometimes people just can't accept the past. 
  Alfred needs Dolls. Blonde, blue-eyed human dolls that will help him rewrite his past and change his future. Twins Angel and Bud are used to making do. Their dad is in prison, and mom won’t win parenting awards. Bud thrives on neglect, but Angel isn’t so strong. 
  Now they’re captives in a place called the Dollhouse, and things have gone from bad to worse. The Dolls are forced to re-stage old photographs, but satisfying Alfred is not easy. He has a twisted sense of humor and a violent temper that explodes when things don’t go his way — and sometimes when they do. 
  Angel knows that if she and the other Dolls are to survive this warped playtime, she can no longer be needy and afraid. She must prove how strong she can be — fast. There aren’t many photos left …

  “This is easily the best novel I have read all year, hands down! I have never even heard of this author before and all of a sudden kindle is telling me to read this book and I’m blown away!” 
  “HOLY FREAKING MOLY . This book was so damn good in a dark, disturbing, messed up, spectacular kind of way! This book is like the definition of anxiety.” 
  “I love books that are dark and disturbing and this one really delivered. The author was great at describing everything, to the point that you often felt like you were right there to personally witness all that went on inside of the dollhouse.” 
  “There is some bat shit crazy stuff going on in this book and yet it left me crying.”
