Aspiring writer Norah Jacobs needs an escape. In the span of two weeks, her corrupt brother has been jailed for murder and his partner has been hovering on her doorstep, threatening to ruin what little peace she has left. Packing her car, Norah flees the city and goes off the grid, finding refuge in the small coastal town of Bellvale. However, Norah's newfound refuge lands her right in the middle of a power struggle between creatures she thought only existed in fairy tales, and she begins to see that no matter how hard you try to run from your troubles, they seem to have a way of catching up with you...

Predator: one that preys, destroys, or devours. He was always the predator, always the one stalking and preparing to strike. Failure was not an option to him, not achieving what he desired was not an option. He spent his whole life with this mentality, that he was the predator. In the wild it was the survival of the fittest, and life was no different. Those were the rules he lived by. And everything and everyone could be prey in his eyes. Including her. Prey: one that is helpless or unable to resist attack. She had lived on her own for years, taking care of herself. She had survived even against the odds, with her dignity still intact in the process. Maybe her life wasn't what others expected or would want, it wasn't even what she wanted. But it was hers and she made the best of it, surviving on her own and under her terms. Until she meets him and turns her life upside down. She is no longer surviving on her own terms, but his. And there is nothing she can do. *The story will have underplays of power dynamics. Teasing, taunting. He is the predator and she his prey, but who is really going to be captured by who?*

Son burlones, astutos, a veces insoportables, a veces intimidantes, y están acostumbrados a liderar el campus con sus crueles juegos de niños ricos que no le temen a nada. Lo que ellos no esperan es que Jude tiene un ingenioso plan. Ella pretende sacar a la luz sus más oscuros y perversos secretos. Esos que con tantas mentiras los Cash se han esmerado en "enterrar". ------------------------------------------------------ ----------- Obra protegida en el SAPI, Caracas, Venezuela, 2018.© NO COPIAR.
