Book Trailer


“Two words you once ran toward.
Now the last thing you want to hear.”



A house at the end of a wet road, every light burning, and no good reason for it. Daddy’s Home opens the Holly Jennings series in the place thrillers are most dangerous — the family home — and turns a phrase every child once ran toward into something you dread hearing. A.K. Alexander builds the tension out of ordinary things: a porch light, an empty mailbox, a door that should have been locked.

The opening chapter offers no graceful way out.
Every chapter closes a little tighter than the last.
Holly Jennings is capable, bruised and stubbornly human.
Short scenes built for reading well past midnight.
A house that should be empty.
Every light left on.
Someone who never really left.
Daddy’s Home is a dark, fast-moving thriller that takes the safest three words in a family’s vocabulary and makes them the last thing anyone wants to hear.
