Alexis left her hometown after graduation and never looked back- that is, until she received the news of her grandmother's passing. Reluctant to return to the town and the people who caused her so much pain, Alexis makes the trip anyway, hoping to say her final goodbyes to her grandmother with minimal interactions with anyone else in the forsaken town.

As the demons of her past present themselves to her in full force, Alexis is determined to make it through her grandmother's farewell and return to her new life- far away from here.

Will Alexis be strong enough to survive the brutal reminders of the past, or will they break her once again?

All I see are shadows. Trees. The world swimming around me. All the while, I call out for Maeve. But she never comes. I can't find her. Why can't I find her? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Since homecoming night senior year, Aisling Turner has lived in a hell of her mother's creation. For five years, she's been trapped in Florida, wondering why she can't remember anything about the night her best friend disappeared. Cut off from the only family who ever loved her and all she's ever known. It took five years, but she finally escaped and returned to the small town of Davies, Oklahoma. Everything and nothing is the same. But she's determined to make peace with her guilt. To say goodbye to Grams. To start over in the only place she's ever felt at home. If the town will let her, that is. Years later, most people still think she murdered her friend in the woods that night. Even Aisling isn't so sure she's completely innocent. Apparently, one of those "concerned citizens" believes Aisling knows more than she claims. They set off a chain reaction that puts Aisling on a path with Brett, her old high school crush, and his best friend, Deputy Leo, to discover what actually happened that night. Aisling isn't completely sure she wants to know. But like the drive to come home, the desire to know the truth is too strong. Even if it destroys her. Content Warning: This story does contain some difficult topics, namely child abuse (mentioned - never shown), attempted assault, being drugged, and, of course, murder. There is also some sexual content (aka one sex scene). The chapters with the sex scene and attempted assault are marked at the top of the chapter.
