The Treehouse

The forest held all of our secrets. If you listened closely, you could hear their faint murmurs on the breeze, the foliage down to the smallest critter could be heard whispering. You just had to listen hard enough. It was the summer before graduation, the final summer before our lives changes. That's what we had thought at least. But, disaster crept up
from the darkness, never heading warning. We were naïve to the change on the horizon, unsuspecting of disaster lurking in the shadows of our forest...

Waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

Deep in the woods, Francesca and her two best friends spent their childhood hiding from the world in the safety of their hidden treehouse. It had always been the three of them, an inseparable force. But, when Nikolas is murdered her entire world is turned upside down. The treehouse isn't the same anymore, and she craves answers. Distraught by his death, Frankie goes after the person who killed him, desperate to find a shred of evidence to help bring justice to his death.
