They have recovered and lead lives as casual and as humble as they can. Gabriel lives the life that many teenagers wish for. He's got it all - the popularity, a promising future, friends, and the adoration of an entire town. But there's always a price to pay. SECRET: A letter from a secret admirer flips the casual rhythm of Gabriel's life on its head, and when he decides to secretly pursue his five-year crush, the letters and messages begin to take on an ominous intonation threatening to burn the foundations of his successes. SUSPECT: Gabriel learns that his secret admirer is a greater threat than expected. His relationship outed to the semi-religious town of Shaw, Gabriel becomes the suspect in the murder of a schoolmate. When another is kidnapped and heavily battered, Gabriel and his friends become leading suspects while trying to find out the truth. When a friend goes missing, Gabriel and his friends must finish what their missing friend started and hopefully find him before it is too late. SERPENT: Gabriel finally pieces the puzzle together. The attacks, the letters, the messages, and the evidence - they all portray a side that is never shown and always hidden. It portrays the tactics of a mastermind in the making - a sociopathic psychopath, and all evidence points to one person Gabriel would never think to suspect. A wolf in sheep's clothing, a silver-tongued serpent. Gabriel must now confront this masterminded criminal before anyone else around him gets hurt.

Ending by Mia_is_ok

A town with no history. A girl with no name. An end with no beginning. My oldest memory of this place was blurry. It faded in and out of my dreams and subconscious. The details edges had been rubbed smooth long ago, but the feeling of complete and absolute terror had remained as distinguishable as the day it happened. fifteen or so years back... That fear has always kept me grounded to the forest that isolated me from the rest of the world. It kept me safe from whatever I had to run away from. Tricking me into thinking what was best for my survival, was to stay hidden. But when dangers from the outside seep into the safe haven I had created, all sense of security shatters. Suddenly the safety net is gone, and other people exist again... Some that had definitely thought I was dead. (as of 9/30/24 - Hello (: this is a disclaimer! I have been writing this book for like 6 years and it is not perfect at all. I am currently rewriting all the chapters and posting new ones every month so I can finish it. If you choose to read this know that this is not the final result. I hope you enjoy it and if not, feel free to tell me why. I'm trying to learn! Thank you so much!)
