Beautiful Victim
The perfect villain... or the perfect victim?
Growing up, Carrie was Ethan's one true love, his fixation and his constant obsession. Friends to the bloody end, they were each other's rocks whilst navigating through their dark and monstrous childhoods together. But then Carrie died and Ethan was almost destroyed by the secrets that were revealed in her wake.
It's now fifteen years later and Carrie is back from the dead... and Ethan is forced to confront a truth he's tried to deny himself for all these years.
With his obsession renewed, the situation rapidly spirals out of control as their story escalates towards a dark and startling conclusion. Because now Ethan has a singular focus;
Keep the girl, no matter the consequences.
The truth should set you free, but what happens when the truth is the one thing that can destroy you?
Can Ethan's obsession for the girl he's always loved ever really be more than that? Or is the idea of her the only thing left to fight for...because perhaps, the illusion of Carrie was the only thing he ever really had.

When the sweet innocence of the Scott family clashes against criminal forces more dangerous than they ever imagined, Melody is all too aware that a mom's got to do what a mom's got to do to protect her family.
