WINNAAR van de 2019 Watty Awards in the categorie: ''Spanning en Thriller''! Wanneer agenten John Wolfe en Colen MacCalmain naar het slaperige dorpje Wayrest worden gezonden om de verdwijning van ene Marcus Hamilton te onderzoeken, vinden ze in plaats van antwoorden alleen maar raadsels en geheimen. Al snel loopt hun onderzoek vast, totdat ze op een mysterieus huis zonder nummer stuiten: een huis dat, zo blijkt, de twee weldra in hun greep krijgt. Lees nu het spannende verhaal dat speelt met je geest in een dorp waar niets is wat het lijkt. Credit naar mijn goede vriendin BlueNeko, zonder wier hulp dit scenario niet tot stand was gekomen.

But she soon discovers she isn't turning into a zombie - she's turning into something else. --------- Excerpt: I looked up and stared. My reflection looked back at me in the mirror of the dark room. My eyes were literally glowing, there was no mistaking it. It was not a reflection of light, or any of the other excuses I had used or others had assumed. They were glowing a light sapphire blue color. It was not a bright glow, but it was definitely a glow. Glowing eyes were not normal. Okay, at this point I had to admit it, I was no longer normal. What was I then? For that, I had no answer [[Word count: 495,000]] Copyright August 2016. All Rights Reserved. Readers may not copy, alter, or steal this story.
