Synopsis

Meet Hanna, a seemingly sweet seven-year-old girl whose silence and charm captivate her adoring father, Alex. However, beneath her angelic facade lies a chilling malevolence, reserved almost exclusively for her mother, Suzette. As Suzette's health and sanity fray under the weight of Hanna's increasingly sinister games and manipulative tactics, she grows terrified that her daughter harbors a truly evil agenda. Alex, blind to the escalating domestic horror, remains oblivious to the psychological warfare tearing his family apart. What unfolds is a harrowing battle of wills between mother and daughter, a tense psychological thriller that meticulously dissects the frailty of familial bonds and the terrifying question of whether a child can be born truly bad, leaving readers to question where their sympathies lie until the shocking conclusion.

Critical Reception

"Hailed by critics as a 'must-read' and 'propulsive' psychological thriller, *Baby Teeth* garnered widespread acclaim for its 'wholly original' and 'unnerving' exploration of familial breakdown and a chilling child protagonist."
