Broken
They promise safety. They mean surrender.
When Daniel and Angela Locke’s daughter vanishes in South London, their search leads them into the arms of The Circle — a movement preaching unity, healing, and hope.
But behind the slogans lies something older and hungrier. The Circle’s gospel of compassion masks a cult that feeds on belief itself.
In Broken and its sequel Red Communion, survival becomes sacrament as love curdles into faith and faith into infection.
Equal parts psychological thriller and literary horror, The Circle exposes the machinery of modern empathy — the charity, the sermon, the smile — and asks how far we’ll go to belong.
Realism first. Dread second. Horror that sounds like compassion.
