However, time is ticking, and Holly is the last victim in the murderer's sights. If she dies, she's sure that they'll disappear for good, and the case will go cold. But can she learn to trust the Tyrels, especially Emerson, who seems more alike to her than anyone she's met before? Could the strange murder that happened in their own family three years ago be connected to the one that took away the Cassias' lives? And will the Tyrels manage to reopen the cold case that left them fatherless, to solve The Case of the RoseBlood Killer once and for all, or will the truth remain buried? "Roses are red, "Blood is too, "You're better off dead, "I'm coming for you."

Amazing. I'm doing more business now than when I had a office, secretary, telephone lines and such. Now I just have a website and a e-mail that people contacted me for my services. Word of mouth is my best advertising. Everyone was surprised at how I was able to get into anywhere and get info for them, but walls couldn't stop me now.

On a storm-lashed night fifteen years ago, college student Skyler vanished without a trace near the haunted woods of Dalewood. Her abandoned car was found with a flat tire, but no sign of struggle-only whispers of a mysterious house and a swan emblem etched in marble. Now, years later, a cryptic clue surfaces in the most unexpected place, pulling Jack Rossi into a cold case that has haunted the quiet town for too long. The son of a renowned FBI profiler and a sharp-minded local sleuth, Jack has inherited a relentless drive for the truth-and a gut that rarely leads him astray. As he digs deeper, Jack finds himself caught in a web of local legends, forgotten secrets, and a chilling charm surrounding the house in the woods. The emblem of the swan-once dismissed as a strange detail-proves to be the key to a mystery far darker than anyone imagined. What happened to Skyler that night? And what sinister truths lie hidden beneath the ivy-covered beauty of the house that lured her in? Some secrets don't want to be uncovered. But Jack Rossi isn't the type to walk away.

This is my first story! The year is 3058, during WWIII and the continents have changed due to the fact that the land had become too polluted. Canada, USA and Mexico agreed to sink their land and trade it for raising up the land of the Atlantic ocean. It was a 400 year process of evacuating everyone and physically raising up the land beneath the sea and flooding their land. WWIII started in 2964 and ended supposedly in the new millennia, 3000. However, though people prefer to turn a blind eye to the issue, the war is still going strong. Opal Moon however, is not fighting in the war, nor is she fighting against it. That would be boring. No, she does as she pleases, wreaking havoc all over the city of Troy.
