The Monster in the Closet
A novel.
Macabre Ink/Crossroad Press
Cover by David Dodd
“Gauthier maintains a high level of suspense throughout as he keeps readers guessing whether Brambles, who, Cleo reports, has also voiced threats against Drew, is real or a figment. Meanwhile, the fully three-dimensional characters make buy-in to the central conceit easy. Stephen King fans will be enthralled.” – Publishers Weekly
What if the monster in your child’s closet is real?
Tim Beaulieu’s daughter, Cleo, says that the monster is also her invisible friend, whom she blames for innocuous trouble. The whole thing makes Tim uneasy as he tries to remember a part of his childhood that is missing. Surely, nothing can be wrong. Can it?
When the boy in the apartment upstairs goes missing after hurting Cleo, horrific memories begin to resurface as Tim finds himself under suspicion for the unthinkable. His daughter and those around him are in danger.
Tim must face his past to save Cleo but can they survive the monster in the closet?
