Echoes of Midnight

By Annie Carlisle

In Cedar Grove, the past never stays buried.

I swore I'd never go back.
Never set foot in Cedar Grove again.

But the email changed everything.
A murder.
Just like the Midnight Killer's work, a case I'd closed years ago.
Except he's still in prison.

Now I'm here. Back where it all started.

Detective Kara Hastings doesn't want me here.
Doesn't trust me.
I don't blame her.
I wouldn't trust me either.
But as the bodies pile up, someone's leaving me messages.
Personal ones.
Like they know me. Like they're playing a game.

The rules are simple: find the killer before they find us.

Kara thinks we can win.
I'm not so sure.
Because this time, the killer isn't just after victims.
They're after me.

And now they've set their sights on Kara.

I can't let her die.
I won't.
Even if it means facing the darkest parts of my past.

Because if we lose, Cedar Grove loses too. And it might just cost Kara and I everything.
