Esoteric: adj. Understood by or meant for only the select few who have special knowledge or interest.
A group of eight. Multiple disappearances appear around town. Bodies of the missing coming back dead. An unknown prosecutor.
The citizens of Madison, Massachusetts are in an uproar as these unexplainable events occur. It started badly with the kid. It got worse as the missing and dead piled up.
The deaths are brushed off as accidents, and the "murderer" behind bars. Yet, some know better. Some who can see things others cannot.
Enter the "buddys club". A group of high school freshmen, attempting to survive the year. Determined to get to the bottom of these problems, they try to solve the problem through dangerous, contradictory ways. Navigating personal problems, rivalries, and of course the trouble in everyone's mind is the adventure of a lifetime.
But, as relations flare and the trouble outside their doorstep becomes more real and horrifying, they must discover where their true allies and trust remain, and what they must do to save everyone around them.

Wives' Murder Club
The dates match. Everything added up. How could I not realize it? The bodies. The charges. The gossip. The rumours. The accuracy. The deaths. Every single body went missing. They were right, I should have listened. I knew something was weird, but not this bad. Church on Sundays, book club on Mondays, Bible study on Wednesdays, their kids' games on Tuesdays and Thursdays, Charity donations on Fridays, and dates on Saturdays. I guess its true what they say. The biggest monsters don't hide in the darkness of your closet. Instead, they smile in your face in broad daylight. The worst demons don't conceal themselves in your shadow. They thrive in the light. The darkest souls own the brightest smiles. A light so captive, you don't even realize they've gotten so close. Don't even realize when you've befriended them and their darkness has touched you. So, Sometimes, to find the ugliest monster, you have to look in the mirror. P.S, the tags should serve as a warning as well. This story is my own, which means I own the characters, plot, etc. However, I did get some inspiration from James Patterson's WOMEN'S MURDER CLUB, just with a slight twist ;)
Bloodlust
"Swiftly, the blade was plunged into the base of his neck and yanked out not another second later. Dark red blood sprayed out from his neck like a broken water pipe, covering the murderer with his blood, before the pressure dropped and the blood flowed proforously down his orange shirt. The boy I had a crush on used whatever strength he had left to spit blood on his murderer's face, before collapsing on the ground with a heavy thud." Things turn south when six friends enter their school during the dead of night. What was thought to be a simple dare becomes a life threatening game of cat and mouse. Will they be able to outrun the school's gruesome past, or will they join the others before them? One thing is for sure, if they ever get out of there alive, their lives will be changed. Forever.
