RosyThorne
One night. One bad decision. One missing sister.
Luce was supposed to be looking out for her sister, Sara. Instead, she left her at the Desecrated -a ruined church rumored to be the hunting ground for a local cult [cite: 18, 2025-10-26].
The next morning, Sara is gone.
When the police declare it a kidnapping, Luce is trapped. Her only alibi is the dark, terrifying stranger who gave her a ride home . To tell the truth means exposing her own secret-a secret that now makes her the prime suspect in her sister's disappearance.
Her only guide is a cryptic note Sara left behind, warning her to trust no one-especially not Leo , Luce's charming, "golden boy" ex-boyfriend.
The note points her to the one person she's terrified of: "C".
"Corvo". The dangerous, silent outcast who haunts the town's shadows. He was there that night. He saw everything. And now, he's the only one who holds the key to the truth.
Caught between the "perfect" ex everyone trusts and the "bad boy" everyone fears, Luce must unravel the town's darkest secrets. But in a place built on lies, who is the real monster?
