Ava Manner is a 19-year-old forensic psychology student at NYU. Intelligent, charismatic, and popular, she spends her time studying, partying, and hanging out with her two best friends, Hanna and Sofia. Except Ava Manner isn't her real name. And she isn't 19 years old. When two guest lectures from the FBI begin noticing strange inconsistencies in Ava's stories, suspicions start to grow. With the help of their team they launch an investigation into the mysterious student. Was she hiding a dark secret? Could she even be a serial killer? Her unsettling understanding of the criminal mind seems almost too accurate to be explained by academic talent alone. As agents digs deeper, the truth behind Ava's carefully constructed identity slowly unravels, revealing a mystery far more disturbing than anyone could have imagined. The story will be a bit grafic, just letting you know in advance. Explanations of crime scenes and such. Some mental issues. I haven't finished writing it yet so maybe more. This is my first time writing a book, and English is not my first language, so please be kind. And let me know if you have any feedback or find something wrong. Thanks!

They say he's losing his mind. He says they're letting a murderer walk free. Arthur Hale is a man of rigid habits and bitter silences. For thirty-five years, he has hidden behind the manicured hedges of Hawthorn Crescent, nursing a guilt that won't die. But when a charming widower and his silent son move in next door, the static in Arthur's sleep-deprived brain begins to scream. A glimpse of a woman's face. A muffled thud in the night. A plea for help that might only exist in the space between heartbeats. When the authorities arrive, they find only a perfect home and a "senile" old man. Now, Arthur is trapped in a deadly game of hide-and-seek where the seeker is half-blind and the hider is a master of shadows. As his neighbor begins a chilling campaign of psychological warfare, Arthur must confront the ultimate question: Is there a monster next door, or is the ghost of his dead daughter finally pulling him into the abyss? A slow-burn, mind-bending thriller about guilt, gaslighting, and the deadly cost of watching too closely. (New chapters every Friday!)
