The Hollow Boy by J.T. Marrow

In the decaying mill town of Millford, Maine, eleven-year-old Timmy Greer has found the only thing that still feels real: his grandfather's antique bellows camera.

Grief has already hollowed out his family. His father is gone. His mother is a ghost of herself. His silent little sister, Ellie, sees things no one else can. When Timmy discovers that the camera doesn't just capture images-it opens doors-he thinks he's found a way to hold onto the past.

He is wrong.

Something ancient and ravenous lives inside the photographs. Something that feeds on memory, on loss, on the spaces between frames. Every picture Timmy takes pulls a little more of his world into a cold, sepia-stained nightmare where people are reduced to hollow shells and shadows wear the faces of the people you love.

As the boundary between reality and the negative begins to dissolve, Timmy must protect what remains of his family from an entity that wants to develop them-permanently-into its endless, static collection.

Part The Babadook, part The Ring, and wholly original, The Hollow Boy is a chilling, atmospheric horror novel about grief you can't outrun, memories that bite back, and the terrifying power of what we choose to preserve.
