"Something snarled in the darkness. As he started to slowly back away, his head hit the hanging light, causing it to sway. The lamp filled the interior of the shed with dancing shadows. Freddie suddenly had the feeling that he was being toyed with. He backed into the nearest corner in order to get a good look at his unwelcome visitor.
     The hairs began to prick up on the back of Freddie's neck. Nervous beads of sweat dripped into his eyes. The suspended lamp, still swinging, cast an orange glow, then darkness. Orange, then darkness. Orange, then darkness.
     Something emerged from the shadows directly in front of Freddie. His eyes widened in disbelief, not sure if what he was seeing was real."

Emmy's life is going just as she'd planned: She's living in her own apartment, dancing every day and is just leaps away from being named her company's next Prima ballerina. And she's only 17. But all of Emmy's plans come to a screeching halt when the FBI shows up at her door to let her know that she's being stalked by a serial killer. Suddenly, the safe, insulated world she created for herself is riddled with violence, fear...and a growing pile of dead bodies. At first Emmy wants nothing more than to forget her chilling new reality - but her admirer isn't finished with her yet, and before she knows it, Emmy's stuck in a nightmare she can't dance her way out of. Content and/or trigger warning: This story contains detailed scenes of murder, rape, torture, sex and stalking, which may be triggering for some readers. [[word count: 80,000-90,000 words]]
