In a quiet town swallowed by forests and secrets, girls have been disappearing for years - but nobody dares speak about it.
When sixteen-year-old Jade begins hearing her name whispered outside her bedroom window at night, she becomes obsessed with uncovering the truth behind an old man the town calls "Dopey." Strange, silent, and always watching, Dopey has spent decades haunting the edges of town while families pretend nothing is wrong.
As Jade digs deeper into the disappearances, she uncovers hidden journals, abandoned houses, and a terrifying pattern connecting every missing girl before her. But the closer she gets to the truth, the more Dopey seems to already know about her.
In a town where fear is buried beneath politeness and rumors, Jade realizes she may not just be investigating the story -
she may be becoming part of it.
Dopey + Jade is a dark gothic horror novel filled with mystery, obsession, and the terrifying feeling of being watched.
