**About the book, Dollface: A Novel**
In the quiet suburbs of New Jersey, horror novelist and single mother Riley Masterson hopes for a fresh start, only to find herself trapped in a waking nightmare when a killer in a plastic doll mask begins a gruesome spree. As the members of her local PTA are systematically targeted, Riley must confront the terrifying reality that someone is turning her own fictional tropes into a very real—and very deadly—slasher film. Surrounded by suspicious neighbors and mounting paranoia, she must unmask the "Dollface" killer before she becomes the final girl in her own tragic story.
