Summary

The hectic seaside town of Brompton-On-Sea sizzles in the summer heatwave. Holiday makers and locals alike find distraction and amusement on the pier, where the Cranville family have owned and run the fun fair for generations.
 
The rides on offer rival any of those offered by the biggest theme parks in the country, but at a far more reasonable cost. Pete Cranville, the senior member of the clan, assures that all his attractions offer their guests true value for money.
 
The Ghost Train is a particular favourite with visitors. Located on the very edge of the pier, it might seem a little out of the way, but it is still one of the fair’s most popular rides.
 
And for those who make it out alive, it truly is a marvellous experience.
Available since: 11/04/2022.
Print length: 386 pages.

But, he does not travel alone. Joined by a succubus of terrible power and the silent golem Mishpat, Malechai will stop at nothing to find Dragan and bring his twisted reign to an end.

Step into a world where innocence is the greatest terror with The Devil’s Doll, an audiobook that uncovers the sinister life hidden in a child’s favorite plaything. In this spine-chilling narrative, you’ll:

 
Meet the seemingly harmless porcelain doll, passed down through generations—until its dark influence begins to reveal itself in whispers and shadows.

 
Follow a family on the brink of unraveling as each creak of floorboards and sudden chill points to something far more malevolent than mere imagination.

 
Uncover cryptic journal entries and faded photographs that hint at the doll’s fiendish origin and the terrible price paid by those who dared defy it.

 
Feel the mounting dread as night falls, and the boundaries between the living—and the possessed—grow ever thinner.


 
Narrated with chilling precision and woven with subtle soundscapes—from the soft click of doll joints to the distant echo of childlike laughter—The Devil’s Doll lures you deeper into its web of obsession and despair. Press play… and beware the toy that never truly sleeps.

    “They said I could choose my reward. I choose you.”  
It was a simple job: go to a wedding. Execute the groom.  
Then I saw the bride, wearing a mountain of white satin, her lacy veil now spattered with blood. Instead of running away screaming like the rest of the wedding party, she raised her chin and stared at me, a challenge in her dark eyes. I felt a flicker of feeling in my cold dark heart...  
Then she shot me. And I knew...  
I had to make her mine.
