The Pyscho Unchained

Book two in the psycho series.

When Adele Campbell and her closest friends become the target of Ariel's new foe, despite her many attempts to steer clear of breaking the law, she finds herself back in the epicentre of Harleyville's chaotic nature as she fights to protect her friends and unmask her new tormentor before it's too late. In a whirlpool of mysteries, lies, deception and murders, Ariel Campbell must once again claw herself out of the grips of darkness and prove to the world that she was completely sane.

"Oh my god, oh my god what do we do!?" Lewis's legs buckled in underneath her and she went crashing down onto the road, the gravel beneath her knees digging into her skin. But she ignored the pain of stones penetrating her flesh because she was already in utter agony. Tears flowed down her cheeks like a broken dam and her body racked with sobs, sobs that were almost like the wails of a banshee into the dark chilly night.

Ariel clenched her jaw tightly and lowered herself down beside Lewis who was curled up into herself, her hair matted to her cheeks, her eyes wide and bloodshot red, peering up at Ariel in fear, confusion and distraught. "This is what we do, we have two options. We burn the car and draw in attention from god knows who! Or we drive this bloody car into the lake nearby."

"What if w-we get caught!" Lewis exclaimed frantically as her eyes snapped around her surroundings warily. Ariel cupped Lewis' cheeks in her hand and tilted her head towards her. Lewis wondered to herself how Ariel could be so calm, so nonchalant, as if they hadn't just killed a man. And Ariel knew those questions swirled through her friend's mind, but at the moment she couldn't care less what Lewis thought of her. Her only hope and focus were to get the hell out of there.
