An ordinary suburban house. A shelter corgi everyone adores. And a secret only Lydia sees.
Nobody believes the kid. Everyone loves the dog.
When eleven-year-old Lydia’s family adopts Biscuit, a quiet little Pembroke corgi, everyone falls in love instantly. He wipes his paws. He never barks. He’s the perfect good boy.
Except when he and Lydia are alone. At first, the voice inside her head only wants to help—finishing her homework in her exact handwriting, finding lost things. Then mean kids start getting hurt while Lydia stands watching. Her mother’s valuables shatter inside her closet. And in the dark, Biscuit starts stretching—growing taller, wrong-jointed, and packed with far too many teeth.
No recording catches him. No adult sees him. And Biscuit says no one will ever believe her.
