HUNTING ANNABELLE COVER

HUNTING ANNABELLE

Sean Suh is done with killing.

After serving three years in a psychiatric prison, he’s determined to stay away from temptation. But he can’t resist Annabelle—beautiful, confident, incandescent Annabelle—who alone can see past the monster to the man inside. The man he’s desperately trying to be.

Then Annabelle disappears.

Sean is sure she’s been kidnapped—he witnessed her being taken firsthand—but the police are convinced that Sean himself is at the center of this crime. And he must admit, his illness has caused him to “lose time” before. What if there’s more to what happened than he’s able to remember?

Though haunted by the fear that it might be better for Annabelle if he never finds her, Sean can’t bring himself to let go of her without a fight. To save her, he’ll have to do more than confront his own demons… He’ll have to let them loose.

I had no idea where this story was going, only that I was rooting for Sean, the tortured hero whose search for Annabelle means releasing his own inner demons. Gritty, intense, and 100% surprising, Hunting Annabelle is one hell of a wild ride.”

A Note on Content:

This book contains themes of violence, sexual assault (mostly off page), self-harm, and lots more. I hope you enjoy the story, but it’s important to know these things in case you’re gifting this to someone who wishes to stay away from this type of content. Thank you so much for engaging in my work and going on these strange and dark journeys with me.
