Mouse Trap

MOUSE TRAP

Death haunts the Scott family home.

Twenty years ago, Dakota Scott’s baby brother died falling down the back stairs. Twenty-four hours ago, her older brother, Lennox, wasted away into nothing in the same house. Two deaths, just floors apart, yet no one suspects a connection.

Settling Lennox’s affairs lures Dakota back to the family’s old Victorian home overlooking Astoria. It has changed over the years—what was once a happy home is now filled with sadness, strange memories, and lights that won’t stay lit.

In the ever-growing darkness, a sinister force has awakened from a long slumber, and it is far from finished with Dakota. Her life and sanity hang in the balance—alongside everything she holds dear.

Fans of Shirley Jackson, Silvia Moreno-Garcia, and Elizabeth Engstrom will love the quiet horror in this modern gothic tale.

Praise for Mouse Trap:

“I absolutely ate this book right up.” – NetGalley Review

“Larrinaga is a master of mystery storytelling. Steeped in vivid realism, this slow-burn paranormal tale might have you question your own thoughts by its conclusion. What’s real and what’s inexplicable is blurred. This story will haunt you beyond the last page!” – Goodreads Review

“Utterly bone-chilling” – Goodreads Review
