The Broken Ones

Sophie has cared selflessly for her mother for a long time. The older woman is in the grip of dementia and highly vulnerable.

Except she’s also vicious toward her daughter. Sophie lives under a constant threat of abuse, and has done throughout her life. When her mother starts complaining about a shadow that visits her at night, Sophie doesn’t pay much attention. Surely it’s the product of an addled mind?

But then she hears two voices whispering in the dark and Sophie is forced to question everything she believed. Is there really a person who enters their home unseen? Or what if her mother isn’t losing her mind? What if she’s playing a game? A cruel, calculated game that Sophie can’t escape.

Dark, twisted, and razor-sharp, The Broken Ones is a haunting psychological thriller where nothing is as it seems and trust may be the most dangerous illusion of all.
