Publisher's summary

Winner of the Ladies of Horror Fiction Award for Best Novella of 2020

"Can you hear the bell chime?"

A girl suffering from paralyzing night terrors finds a missing poster hanging from the door of her apartment building. On that poster is a photograph of a frighteningly familiar face.

It's her.

Only, she's never seen this photo before and something about its grin scares her. How its eyes seem to follow her no matter where she finds herself in the room.

Over a series of strange events to follow—events that will make her question whether her sanity is still there or fleeting—she must discover:

What is real and what is the nightmare?

An interesting read from Queen Mona

I enjoyed this read. Vanilla by Mona will always hold my heart but Mona is an automatic purchase author.

A unique read

If you want to explore the mind of someone gone mad, this is your chance.

It’s a unique book that in the middle says something to the effect of “if you’ve enjoyed this book so far then quit now, it only gets worse from here.”

I look for scary/disturbing titles - which are surprisingly hard to find - and this one is up there.

I couldn’t get into it. I got lost a few times. Had high hopes for this 😭

Beautifully written and entirely immersive.

Intriguing and intense. The construct of this story is unlike any I’ve ever read, and its uniqueness in subject matches the elegance in the way the brutality is described. Mona Kabbani is one of one and I will definitely be back for more.
