[2014 WATTY AWARDS WINNER]
[FEATURED WATTPAD NOVEL!]
[EXCERPT ONLY]

Small towns talk, especially when a long-time resident dies mysteriously on the mountain bordering the sleepy village of Bon Resi. Sybil Deerborn, like any curious person, wants to know why a quiet older man who used to be a thriving member of the community was targeted. What makes it more troublesome is the carefully, yet disturbingly planned out threats against her life when she begins to investigate.

With the appearance of an old acquaintance right around the time of the murder, who only seems to stir up trouble with every breath he takes, Sybil begins to wonder if maybe the murders are much closer to home than she anticipated. All of her evidence thus far points to one person, but no matter how close she gets to the truth, something leads her to believe there's more to this than what meets the eye.

Throwing herself into the midst of a murder investigation maybe wasn't the best idea, but what does Sybil have to lose? One event after another, digging up secrets that were nothing but hearsay, Sybil realizes that perhaps she unearthed a secret far too dangerous for even her liking.

But Sybil Deerborn is determined, and as some would say very stubborn. She won't stop until everything comes to light, even if it means risking her life to do so.

Within it is the Investigation Squad, a small group that acts as detectives to solve most, if not all, of the major crimes in the city. After the death of a journalist close to the Squad, Greyson Saffirus, a young member of the Investigation Squad, realizes that the DUO is keeping a secret. The Underworld, a group responsible for the recent string of murders in Portia, is looking for something, and only gives the DUO three pieces of information: its codename is Demon, it's inside the DUO, and they must give it to the Underworld or suffer the consequences. The only problem is that nobody knows what Demon is. With the help of the journalist's notes, Greyson and the rest of the Investigation Squad find themselves faced with a choice: find Demon and give it to the Underworld, or face the group and stop them, even if it's just temporary.

We thought we would always be together. But after we decided to consummate our relationship, it all came crashing down. Bitterness and recriminations followed. Now, it is my college reunion and I find myself face-to-face with Carrie for the first time in twenty-five years. And I realize that I might have a chance to heal the wounds of the past... or possibly make them a whole lot worse.
