ONE MAN BENT ON REVENGE
TWO FAMILIES WITH A FEUD
THREE UNSOLVED MURDERS

They thought the past was in the past. Buried and dusted. That they were safe.

They forgot that truth has an uncanny habit of coming out into the open, dragging skeletons and cobwebs deep from the graves. 

They say the sins of the father are to be laid upon the children -  but what if the children are not there to atone, but to make those responsible pay for it?

Roslina Suleyman has many questions. Why does there always seem to be a blight upon her father's cheerful nature? Why does her grandmother cry so much over old photos? Where does she belong to? Where did they come from before they settled in England?

There has never been an answer to her question except a sidelong look from her mother that tells her to leave it. To not prod or poke the past. To mind her own business. 

That is, until a letter from an unfamiliar address arrives. A wedding invitation, to be specific. And for Roslina, that's the ticket to her answers.

On the other end of the city, there is a young man whose grandmother just died. What he discovers in her belongings give him lesser answers than the questions they raise. One thing is clear: what had only been a fantasy, has become his destiny now.

Read on to find out what happens when these individuals, with shadows on their past, more questions than they can answer, collide together, raising the bones of the dead and chaos for all those involved and their formerly peaceful lives.

𝐅𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐘𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐒 𝐀𝐆𝐎, Cairo Quimby disappeared without a trace. His family has neglected to speak of him since, running the slightly strange but unassuming hotel he grew up in as if nothing ever happened. Until Cairo, a lone wanderer roaming a lost and dangerous world, has a run-in at a diner with mysterious strangers who are after his stepfather ⸻ as it turns out, Richard Quimby has been hiding something, and hiding something valuable. He's broken the viciously enforced code of In-Betweens by whatever his hotel is harboring, and against his better judgment, Cairo's loyalty takes him back. Back to his dreaded childhood home, back to the place to which he swore he'd never return. Cairo's family is nothing ordinary. Strange things happen when they want them to, and impossible is a limit that simply does not exist in their plane of being. But it's this strangeness that he's been rejecting, that he's been trying to run from all these years. Unfortunately, whether he likes it or not, he must enlist the help of siblings who resent him to unveil the secrets behind the vendetta against his stepfather and fight the forces determined to tear his family apart. Oh, and of course, he has to participate in a race for inheritance privileges ⸻ something he never even wanted. Cairo's own past has come back to haunt him, tangled with everyone else's and a million times worse. Time is ticking, and there are sins to atone for, blood to be spilled. #ONC2024 - Prompt 13 Total Word Count: 40,310 #1 in #intrigue 2/24-3/21 © Ginger Beckett 2024
