[Ongoing] This story is dedicated to my best friend and brother, Faolán Van Ryckeghem, who took his own life Nov. 30 of 2016.
Title and book cover are subject to change for now...

TRIGGER WARNING

When her older brother, Sebastien, commits suicide, Aubrey begins hearing a voice whose words spoken are so threatening, yet feels anything but, beckoning her to the same fate. Little does she know, she's about to meet her greatest fear and deepest comfort. 
Join Aubrey (12yrs, MS) as she is forced to explore and face her own traumas, all the while searching for her deceased brother (16yrs, HS).

Important: This is a story based on my own experience of losing someone so precious to me to suicide. And in a way has helped me to stay alive. I don't know how far I'm pushing boundaries on this topic, but I've used this story as a means for coping, and I'm still alive. I'll make sure to put warning signs and disclaimers, plus a letter at the end. I just hope it won't get erased. If people disagree, I understand. But once again, this is how I've been coping. I hope you'll let me finish it.All Rights Reserved
