What Should Not Be Forgotten

Raith Slaughter is a dark boy. The darkness has always seemed to follow him whether asleep or awake. His temporary escape is his pen and paper. They shelter him from the town that shunned him and his family, unwanted memories of the brother who caused it all, and his own self-loathing mind. Hoping to find peace away at college, Raith falls in with a group of seeming misfits who offer him all that has been kept from him, including a chance at love. But even with his new found family, Raith still seems to be falling deeper into the purgatory of his imagination. He can't let anyone find out about his past, but the past just doesn't want to stay buried.
