    I'm looking forward to publishing my small ideas onto here, and maybe even one day publishing them out for the world to see. Also, I really hope I meet new people on here. I really want more book friends.

                                  One town. Two deaths. Zero accidents.


Westmore is the kind of town where everyone knows everyone—and no one knows the truth.

Eight years ago, sixteen-year-old Alice Cortez was found dead in the river. Her best friend, Elijah Song, vanished soon after. The Cortezes grieved. The Songs were shunned. And Alexandra? She was just a kid. But even then, she remembered that night—the sirens, the whispers, the way something shifted in the air like the town itself had swallowed a secret.

Now sixteen herself, Alex sets out to uncover what really happened that October. But the more she digs, the more reality unravels. Memories don’t line up. People lie with straight faces. And the man she once called Dad might be something else entirely. A monster. A killer. Or something worse: a believer in his own innocence.

What started as research turns into obsession. What started as questions turn into fear. And when Alex wakes up bloodied and half-conscious in a moving car—with her father and an unknown accomplice—she realizes she’s not the one writing this story anymore.

She’s the next chapter.
And someone is making sure she never gets to the last page.
