„They said it was just another tragic case. Claire knew better."
When Claire's younger sister Emily is found dead under mysterious circumstances, the world she once knew begins to fall apart. Haunted by grief and unanswered questions, Claire becomes determined to uncover the truth the police seem to be overlooking.
Then she meets Aaron - calm, intelligent, and seemingly just as invested in finding out what really happened to Emily. As they dig deeper into the case together, the clues begin to lead somewhere far darker than Claire ever expected.
But the closer she gets to the truth, the more she starts to wonder:
How well can you really know someone?

Isla is dead. And Asher refuses to believe it was just an accident. Everyone tells him to move on. That grief plays tricks on the mind. But Asher knows something's wrong-he feels it. Isla didn't just slip away into the dark. She was taken. Now haunted by memories that bleed into hallucinations, and guided by the ghost of the girl he's in love with and can't seem to let go of, Asher dives into a chilling puzzle of secrets, betrayal, and unfinished goodbyes. The deeper he searches, the more twisted the truth becomes-and the more he realises Isla's death wasn't the end of their story. Because someone wanted Isla gone. And they're still out there-closer than he thinks, watching every move... and waiting to strike again.
