The Broken Ones

Sophie thought Alzheimer’s was stealing her mother. But what if it’s all a lie?Everyone believes Sophie is a devoted daughter, caring selflessly for her mother in a crumbling old house. They don’t see the bruises. They don’t hear the insults. They don’t know about the shadow her mother claims visits her at night. Sophie tries to dismiss it as part of the disease—until she places a recorder in her mother’s bedroom and hears a second voice whispering in the dark. Now Sophie is questioning everything. The bruises. The paranoia. The fear creeping into every corner of their home. What if her mother isn’t losing her mind? What if she’s playing a game?A cruel, calculated game that Sophie can’t escape. Dark, twisted, and razor-sharp, The Broken Ones is a haunting psychological thriller where nothing is as it seems and trust may be the most dangerous illusion of all.
