Princess Mommy - Hardcover

by Gitte Tamar (Author)

A chilling tale of innocence, illusion, and the monsters we hide behind bedtime stories.

Five-year-old Lillie sees the world through the lens of fairy tales. In her eyes, her mother is a beautiful princess who sometimes disappears into secret towers, and her father is a brave knight who protects their small kingdom from unseen forces. It's a magical world, full of make-believe and it's the only world Lillie knows.

But behind the sparkle and tales of storybook castles lies something much darker.

Lillie's father, John, will do anything to shield her from the grim truths of their home life-even if it means rewriting reality itself. Each story he tells is a carefully crafted lie meant to protect his daughter from the horrors lurking just beneath the surface. But some truths are too monstrous to stay hidden forever.

As cracks begin to form in the fantasy John has built, Lillie starts to glimpse the shadows between the lines. And the more she sees, the more the fairytale unravels-revealing something far more disturbing than she could ever imagine.

"Princess Mommy is a haunting psychological horror novel that blurs the line between innocence and terror, love and delusion. Perfect for fans of The Push, Room, or Baby Teeth, this gripping novel will burrow under your skin and leave you questioning the stories we tell to survive."
