Chapter 2.27 – Batshit Crazy
The hotel manager of the Glimmerbrook Grand had confirmed that the mystery man in their sketch was the man she remembered attacking her.

Chapter 2.16 – Paranormal Pants
Lilith was never really one for singing, but as she climbed out of the taxi and headed towards Joe’s Bar, she unleashed a few verses of a song that had been chained in her head all day.

Chapter 1.34 – Down With That
Caleb had arrived at the billboard with the fish on it. There was definitely no sign of April. Now what?

The grass had beenContinue reading “Chapter 1.34 – Down With That”
Chapter 1.32 – Reckless Ways
Melinda wasn’t feeling quite as spirited as Caleb clearly was, as he bounded along like some sort of undead, overgrown puppy. “Lilith will be pleased to see you. We can play some chess!” he enthused. “I’ll be terrible at it,” Melinda said, wondering what on earth she’d said or done to perk him up soContinue reading “Chapter 1.32 – Reckless Ways”
