The Third Parent by Elias Witherow, 273 pages, ⭐⭐⭐
No one knows where he came from. No one knows what he wants. No one dares ask about his strange physical abnormalities. For a quiet suburban neighborhood, things are about to change. And it starts with a knock at the door. Follow his rules. Don't call the police. Listen to his lessons. That's what Jack and his family were told. Held captive in their own house, they must face a growing storm of mental and physical trauma as they try to just stay alive. But even if Jack can survive the horror of his childhood, will his tormentor ever leave him alone? And who is he really? Who is Tommy Taffy?
This story was originally posted online and then I think extended and published into this book? I've read the online story before and thought it was fine. I did like this version more up until about the 3/4 mark where things just got a bit...weird.
