Cooper Daniels is alive. And really, after everything he survived in highschool, that should be enough. But college isn't the fresh start he was hoping for. Plagued by night terrors and the weight of his many, careful lies, Cooper still hasn't figured out how to outrun his past -- or the memory of Calla Parker, the girl next door who just can't seem to keep her hands clean.

As past and present collide, Calla and Cooper must unite forces against a familiar enemy to solve one final mystery -- and maybe settle an old score or two. 

Good and evil. Right and wrong. Redemption and retribution. They'll have to decide for themselves which road to take.

And we all know the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

The Psycho Is Innocent | ꪜ by XFiction_GoddessX

Highest Ranking: #9 in Mystery/Thriller Psychosis: a condition that disrupts a person's thoughts and perceptions that make it difficult to recognize what is real and what isn't. Psychopathy: a neuropsychiatric disorder marked by deficient emotional responses, lack of empathy and or poor behavioural controls, commonly resulting in persistent antisocial deviance and criminal behaviour. A year ago, Ariel Campbell was a simple girl until she met a not so simple boy. When Tobias Aspen is arrested on suspicion of double homicide, Ariel must grapple with the fact that her life as she knew it would forever change in a whirlpool of gruesome murders, blackmail, betrayal and lost trust. She ventures on a quest to find out who framed him and prove that the only guy she loved wasn't the bloody murderer everyone thought him to be whilst also piecing unmatched puzzles together as she tries to unravel the mystery behind who Tobias Aspen truly is. "Seventeen year old Tobias Aspen was arrested a week after the remains of fifteen year old Kayla Mammoliti and Seventeen year old Maria Jensen of Manchester Central High School were discovered in a ditch-" She watched silently as his image flickered across the television. The dim lights flashed across her face in a mirage of colors, brightening the dark room with a soft glow. Ariel Campbell sat frozen in her spot, unable to comprehend the reality of her life now. She sunk her nails into her skin as his mugshot flickered across her dark dilated irises. Blood began to pool beneath her sharp fingernails but she hadn't reacted to the pain seizing her arm. She was over having Tobias labeled as the monster when the real monsters slept beside them at night. Ariel Campbell had one goal in mind: She was going to prove that the psycho was innocent. No matter what it took. No matter who she hurt.
