Prisoner in My House . My Wife The Puppet Master

di Poul Anderson (Autore)

Paul Anderson, 2025

Nikolas Kallistos built his life on control. A master strategist. A legal mind sharpened by years of calculated victories. A man who always knew the next move before the first had even been played. But control is an illusion. The real power has been beside him all along. Watching. Waiting. Tightening the strings. Scarlett Anderson was born into privilege. Wealth. Influence. She never had to fight for power—she simply wielded it. And when she sensed it slipping, she didn't panic. She adjusted. She recalibrated. At first, it was subtle. A glance at his phone. A question wrapped in concern. A comment that lingered a little too long. Then, the pattern emerged. The women in his life began to disappear. Colleagues dismissed without cause. Transfers are issued overnight. Careers derailed in silence. Names erased from records. Conversations rewritten, as if they had never happened. Coincidence, he told himself. A streak of misfortune. A run of bad luck. Then, the walls of his world began to shift. Women he trusted vanished without warning. Their desks cleared. Their presence was erased. Decisions were made around him, without him. The office was once familiar now an unfamiliar landscape—his power shrinking with every passing day. Even his daughter began to look at him differently. Doubt in her eyes. A hesitation where once there had been a certainty. By the time he saw the truth, it was too late. Scarlett had built the perfect trap. Every exit is sealed. Every escape is anticipated. But every prison has a flaw. And when the puppet cuts the strings, no one will see what's coming. Inspired by true events, this gripping psychological thriller is a chilling descent into control, manipulation, and the slow, systematic destruction of a man who thought he was untouchable.
