Publisher's summary

Evil lurks behind a doll’s porcelain eyes and painted smile….

Fiona Garris never believed in ghosts or evil spirits. A loner by nature, all she wants to do is complete her latest freelance assignment and retreat to her city apartment. But when she suddenly inherits the sprawling estate of an uncle she barely knew, Fiona soon discovers that the supernatural is all too real….

Deep within her uncle’s mansion, a vault has been hidden away from prying eyes, built to hold a very special collection of dolls. But these are no ordinary playthings. Each one is a vessel for a lost soul, an evil spirit.

Fiona finds herself caught in a struggle between good and evil, as a sinister dollmaker seeks to gain control of these vile toys. One night, while the house is still and silent, one of these creations—a maniacal clown doll—creeps through the dark halls…eager to spread terror as it once had.

Can Fiona survive long enough to discover the secret to stopping this abomination?

Or will the murderous doll make her its next victim?

Killer Clown

Inheriting a large home, and some strange requests from her uncle, Fiona is not sure what to think. She doesn't want the money, she just wants to be comfortable and not have to struggle as she has in years past. Now, she has millions, and a large mansion to live in. But there is a catch - a strange collection of dolls that are kept in a vault, that her uncle has requested not be moved.

When one of the dolls gets out, and starts killing, Fiona knows she has to stop it, but she is not sure how.

FABULOUS! I am not a fan of clowns at all, but this was a great read! Highly enjoyed it! Looking forward to the next book!

Great read!

I loved the fact that it was a thrilling ride that will be continued. It gave you a unexpected hero to I fall in love with and a chiliasm you'll love to hate. I look forward to the next book!

Clown

I received this advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review and I'm willingly doing so now. wow what a great beginning to what I'm thinking will be a great series I loved meeting everyone I can not wait to see what will happen next it seemed to just fly by and it definitely will keep you entertained. if you like books filled with excitement and perhaps some chills this is the book for you. The narration makes you feel like you can see what's going on. great story and narration. both thumbs up.

Suitably creepy, but…

I had a hard time getting into this one. On one hand, it was creepy in the sense that my house looks like Toys “R” Us exploded in it, so we have a lot of dolls, and it really really made me think about whether I wanted to get up in the middle of the night, but on the other hand, I had a hard time keeping my mind on the story. I’m not quite sure why, could’ve been me, could’ve been the story, but I just had a hard time keeping my mind on it when reading. I’ve run into this before, and the second book, since this seems to be a series, is better, which has me going back and re-reading the first book and it turns out better. I hope that’s the case, because I have no plan to not read the next book. Every author deserves a chance, and sometimes even a second chance.
