Shakespeare's Sonnets is the title of a collection of 154 sonnets by William Shakespeare, which covers themes such as the passage of time, love, beauty and mortality. The first 126 sonnets are addressed to a young man; the last 28 to a woman. The sonnets are almost all constructed from three quatrains, which are four-line stanzas, and a final couplet composed in iambic pentameter. This is also the meter used extensively in Shakespeare's plays. The rhyme scheme is abab cdcd efef gg. Sonnets using this scheme are known as Shakespearean sonnets. Often, the beginning of the third quatrain marks the volta ("turn"), or the line in which the mood of the poem shifts, and the poet expresses a revelation or epiphany.

Derek McKenzie, a thriving businessman who is about to finalize the biggest deal in his life, stumbles into a night he will never escape. It all starts with the mysterious phone calls, with the unexpected rain, his drunken hands behind the steering wheel, and the little girl dressed in white sitting in the backseat of a red sedan before him. What should have been a twenty-minute detour, the lonely stretch down Sydenham Hill Road prove to be more than that, with its odd twists and turns that never seem to end. And if they are not enough, Derek is reminded by his estranged friend Richard of a secret they buried ten years ago, one that tore their lives apart. With the haunting visions, Derek is seemingly transported to his childhood some three decades ago, and his friendship with the new girl in town, Hailee Miles. His childhood with Hailee, his adulthood with Liz, and the haunting girl in white in the middle of the road-they all seem to come to Derek, as ONE TERRIFYING TRUTH! But how? That is what you (the readers) are yet to know.
