Tommy Phan,A Vietnamese-American detective in Southern California> He drives home one day to find a strange doll on his doorstep, covered entirely with white cloth, having no face, hair or clothes. Little more than a doll 'blank' with two crossed stitches where the eyes should be, five sets mark the mouth and two mark the heart. That night
he hears an odd popping sound and sees the crossed stitches breaking and revealed a reptilian green eye-not a doll's eye, because it blinks
then Tommy Phan pursues the thing as it scrambles away into his house---then he is pursued by it as it evolves into a terrifying opponent bent on killing him. "The deadline is dawn" the creature types on Tommy's computer screen---------(I enjoyed this book very much and recommend it to everyone who likes MYSTERY & SUSPENSE.)
