Stitched Between Us

By Matthew T Crewse

Ava never meant to share her body with a ghost.

When a long-dead doll maker's daughter steps out of porcelain and into flesh, Ava becomes tethered to Kolbi by a living seam stitched beneath her skin. At first, the connection is survivable. Then it begins to evolve.

Emotions sync. Desires amplify. The tether spreads beyond the two of them, quietly stabilizing the people around them - without permission.

Kolbi doesn't want to conquer the world.

She just wants to remain.

But as the bond between them grows stronger, Ava must decide whether to sever the connection and destroy the girl who learned to be human... or risk letting their shared power reshape reality itself.

Stitched Between Us is a chilling psychological horror novel about identity, autonomy, and the terrifying cost of connection.
