From the book cover:
Thirty-year-old detective novelist Tommy Phan has just become the proud owner of a bright aqua Corvette. But as he drives his new purchase home on a balmy California day, he is suddenly seized by a teeth-chattering chill and the feeling that he is being followed by something sinister. When Tommy arrives home, a mysterious rag doll - with crossed stitches for eyes and mouth, and one over its heart - is sitting on his doorstep.
Tommy takes the doll inside. That evening, he is horrified when its fabric rips open . . . . .

Finished the book. There was an afterword in the copy I read that kind of explains the way this book went. According to the afterword, this is supposed to be a mashup of a standard horror story and a screwball comedy. That needs thinking about.
