We've all heard and devoured the classic trope involving the shenanigans of a jock, a princess, a nerd, and a criminal. Although who knows of the trouble capable of ensuing when The Breakfast Club isn't PG-13 anymore? That's the 2007 freshman batch of Arlington University for you. A self proclaimed narc, a blue eyed beauty concealing a Grey Goose in her fanny pack, a playboy with a haunting past, and a musician turned jock selling his soul for steroids out on the soccer field- all scrambling to clear their names out when the silver spooned vixen of Arlington goes missing. Questions are raised, cold corpses come to light, and the blue blooded tyrants finally learn that every action comes with an equally forceful reaction. But are they too late?

Rowan was just here to be a ghostwriter. Investigating a small town's folklore and its connection to a real life murder wasn't part of his contract. ***** Rowan Underwood promised himself he'd do one last gig as a ghostwriter, tired of hearing everyone say how good of an opportunity it is. Bags packed, he moves to a small town in Nova Scotia, hands full of mythology and folklore books to write the work of a lifetime, and even has the help of Isla Guerreiro, small and fierce. When the myths become reality, when he's not entirely sure reality is what it appears to be, Rowan must do everything in his power to find out the truth about a murder before his name cannot be cleared any longer.
