A Rose For The Damned
"Roses in Blood" Morrigan Vale appears to have it all-a thriving career as a criminal psychologist, a sharp intellect, and a calm, composed demeanor. But behind closed doors, she harbors a dark secret. Fueled by a deep sense of justice and a past she cannot forget, Morrigan has become judge, jury, and executioner for those who escape the system's grasp. Her victims are the wicked: child abusers, corrupt figures, and those whose sins have left scars on the innocent. To the world, they're cases gone cold or tragedies swept under the rug. To Morrigan, they're canvases-meticulously planned and executed with the precision of an artist. Her calling card? Blood-red roses blooming in the aftermath of her reckoning. Detective Caleb Blake is no stranger to the failures of the justice system. Haunted by his own mother's unsolved murder, he's determined to uncover the truth behind the chilling crime scenes that bear Morrigan's signature. What he doesn't know is that the killer he's hunting is closer than he could ever imagine. As Morrigan's dual lives intertwine, the line between hunter and hunted begins to blur. Can she outsmart the system she once worked to protect? Or will her carefully constructed façade crack under the weight of her own sins? In a world where justice is flawed and morality is gray, how far would you go to ensure the wicked get what they deserve?
