THESE FAMILIAR WALLS
"A dissociative fever dream, These Familiar Walls burns fast and fierce, gripping and tense with dread. CJ Dotson effortlessly gives new life to haunted house horror with a truly vicious suburban nightmare that will have you checking your locks and covering your eyes."
—Saratoga Schaefer, author of 'Serial Killer Support Group' and 'Trad Wife'
"These Familiar Walls is further burning testament that the past won't only just haunt you, it'll come crashing like a blazing boomerang. [...] You'll burn through this book or it'll burn right through you."
—Clay McLeod Chapman, author of 'Wake Up' and 'Open Your Eyes'
“A twisted new take on a haunted house story. Propulsive and surprising, Dotson keeps readers on their toes with every turn. A dark and genuinely terrifying novel.”
—Erin E. Adams, author of 'Jackal' and 'One of You'
"With an atmosphere that's by turns domestic and delirious, Dotson's ability to find menace in the mundane is again unparalleled. The dual timeline is at once lingering and propulsive, the figurative claustrophobia of a suburban childhood mirrored perfectly in the pandemic lockdown of the book's present day setting. Tightly plotted, and twisted in the best possible way, These Familiar Walls with linger with you long after you've turned its final page."
—MK Hardy, author of 'The Needfire'
THE CUT
"A compelling page-turner full of slithery secrets and scares."
—Rachel Harrison, national bestselling author of 'Black Sheep'
"The Cut combines the throat-clenching tension of a domestic thriller and a soaking wet supernatural spookfest [...]. I dare you to dip a toe into this one. Go on, give it five pages. You'll plunge right in and never come back up."
—Clay McLeod Chapman, author of 'What Kind of Mother' and 'Ghost Eaters'
"An exquisite slow burn horror story that combines the terror of escaping from an abusive relationship with evil that’s reminiscent of Lovecraft."
—Amina Akhtar, bestselling author of 'Almost Surely Dead'
"The Cut made me squirm in my chair! Utterly creepy and engaging. The blend of real world horror with the supernatural is pitch-perfect and absolutely claustrophobic."
—S.A. Barnes, author of 'Dead Silence' and 'Ghost Station'
"Dotson does praiseworthy work crafting a unique horror protagonist."
—Publishers Weekly
