•Start nach Überarbeitung: April 2023• ,,Das Wasser.. es ist schwarz. Der Bach muss unglaublich tief sein", sage ich. Dieser Ort scheint irgendetwas mit mir zu machen. Ja, Besitz über mich zu ergreifen. Die Dunkelheit, die ihn umgibt, schleicht sich langsam in meinen Körper. Wir müssen hier weg und das schnell. "SOPHIE!", schreit Carla jetzt, sodass ich aus meiner Trance gerissen werde und mich erschrocken zu ihr umdrehe. Ich sehe wie sich einige Meter hinter ihr der Nebel etwas auflöst und einen Teil der Stadt frei gibt. ,,Lass uns bitte von hier abhauen! Mir wird das echt zu unheimlich", höre ich sie mit bebender Stimme sagen. Sie hatte recht. Wir sollten von hier verschwinden. Durch Sophies' Neugierde verschwindet ihre beste Freundin Carla spurlos. Etwas schreckliches geht hier vor sich, dem ist sie sich zu hundert Prozent bewusst. Kann sie es noch rechtzeitig schaffen, Carla vor dem sicheren Tod zu bewahren, oder ist es bereits schon zu spät? Und wie kann ihr der charmante Aiden dabei helfen, mit dem sie zunächst überhaupt nicht klarkommt? ********************************************** Das bezaubernde Cover ist von der lieben Chrissie_Rae.
