Corner - Hayley Gabrielle

. .

Résumé :
Dorothy possesses three fears. Strangers, judgement, and liking boys who won't like her back. When her insistent mother persuades her to fill a waitressing position at Uncle Ray's restaurant, Corner, Dot is forced to leave behind her cuddly cat Kramer and the safety of her room to confront an ever-present anxiety bound to all three of her fears. Gradually, the faces of Corner begin to fill her emptiest spaces, until one particular night changes everything. After an unforeseen attack, Dot rapidly loses herself in an all-consuming darkness. But the hands that reach to find her aren't those she would have expected, and Dot soon realises that sometimes the brightest lights are only a step away from the dark....
