The Entomologist by Madame Wisteria

Mr Bestiola has built an immaculate miniature world, complete with tiny villages and carefully engineered ecosystems. 
He populates it with living insects, treating them as citizens in his private kingdom that only he controls.
But his fascination turns cruel as he begins staging their deaths with ritualistic precision.
When strange echoes of his miniature violence begin surfacing beyond his workshop, it becomes clear that nothing in Bestiola’s world ...large or small... is what it appears.
