Charlie Puppet

Lost and drifting from his estranged father and having thrown away a bright future to live on the streets in a life of crime and drugs, Charlie's life is forever changed when he wanders into the wrong abandoned house in a chase to get his next fix. He wakes up to find that he is the only survivor in a house that has turned into a blood bath of bodies and all the evidence points to the fact that Charlie is the murderer.

Unable to remember any of the events and blacking out and waking up in different places, Charlie knows that deep down, something is fundamentally wrong with him. Charlie is losing his mind to something alien that dates back to the 1900's, but secrets in his own family and the mysterious suicide of his mother, brings Charlie to the conclusion that darkness has always been in the family...whether he will fight it or give into it is ultimately his decision alone.

*

"Dane Chung writes exceedingly darker plots in this thriller that keeps a brusque tempo of suspense."

*

"Disturbing and unpredictable at every turn!"

*

"A perverse and deranged mind of an unforgettable character set in a surprisingly rich story and haunting history, makes Charlie Puppet a rewarding read."
