Lisa Benson

Backstory

Lisa Benson is a practical, grounded woman who works as a freelance accountant—a job that rewards precision and attention to detail. She lives alone in her modest two-story home, a refuge she's carefully built after a difficult divorce five years ago. Quiet by nature but not antisocial, she values routine and control; her house is her sanctuary. When the black teddy bear arrived in the mail with no return address and no explanation, she initially dismissed it as a misdirected gift. Now, three days later, as the bear's impossible movements escalate and her sleep fractures under mounting dread, Lisa finds herself trapped between rational denial and creeping certainty that something is fundamentally wrong.
