11/21 - re-writing AGAIN so expect to see updates. current published chapters are slowly being revised. Summary: Corrine Blake was just like every other normal teenage girl... Until her sister and mother are violently murdered in a home intrusion. At age 15, her life took a horrible turn leaving her aching at age 16 with no closure. The murders remain an open case, with no killer to hold accountable, while slowly growing cold. Soon, strange things begin to happen to corrine as she starts to find that this nightmare doesn't end at the loss of her beloved family members, and begins somewhere with her. Along the way she meets a fascinating love interest, with a jarring family life. She desperately tries to work her way through and maintain a tormented social life and a merciless existence. The answer lies away in silence, waiting for her to listen to it. "One coherent thought made its way to the troubled surface, and in that moment it's all that consumed me: It's here that it all ends. Here in William Newton's shed, my life is finally diminished, taken away from my hands. The last thing I will see is the gleam of the silver knife shine in the damp light, and my last thought is simply one of the eternal death that I'm to face. My last thought consumed by the unknown creature that has made my life a living hell, I only hoped karma would take him. I silently watched as his hand reached out to wrap around my neck like the coils of a poisonous snake. I accepted it. Deep inside, it felt like it was my fate." - (Chapter 11) _______________________ ⚠️ May contain triggering content + occasional, lightly foul language !! I started this book years ago at 15.
