When River and Crystal's mother is murdered, River-a New York City detective-must return to her hometown, a place she has avoided since her teenage years. As more murders unfold and her former fling's father is framed, River faces a dilemma: should she leave to protect herself and escape the past again, or stay to clear an innocent man's name and protect her family? Meanwhile, back in town, Crystal-trapped in a toxic marriage-becomes desperate to escape. As the siblings' paths grow closer, River is torn between her desire for safety and her duty to confront the killer threatening her family and town, ultimately uncovering deeply rotted roots.

About the Author

Heather prefers to be referred to as a word artist rather than an author. She throws words at pages in the hopes her readers will enjoy the hallucinations they elicit. She is not a scholar, but she devours any reading material she can get her hands on, from books by neuroscientists to classic literature to splatterpunk. When she is not drinking the blood of her enemies, she spends time with her wife in the depths of forests, calling upon Satan to destroy the patriarchy. She also enjoys hiking, playing drums, and capturing souls on camera. At night, she is protected by her Tuxedo Norwegian Forest cat, Lucifurr, who is ready to attack demons. Her ideal life is one of seclusion from humans (apart from her wife), surrounded by animals, in a self-sustaining cabin. Her other works include Bless This Mess, a splatterpunk horror novel, through the lens of a killer who weaponizes their religion to justify killing. Her writing is cursed. Happy Reading!

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
