Small Secrets

" Mama Marion says I wouldn't have the sight if God didn't intend for me to do good with it. I just wish God didn't feel I needed to see this." Emmy age 16

Her visions started when she was a child. Between a childhood where abuse was the norm and visions of death, her life has been far from normal.

It's been a decade since her vision led police to another victim of the Low Country Killer, long enough that Emmy has convinced herself that the secrets of the past should be forgotten, or at least kept locked away. Letting them out into the open can only cause pain and they've all had enough of that. So, she convinces herself that that horrible chapter in the life of her family is over, and the monsters who once walked Holly Isle are gone forever.

Then out of the blue, on the anniversary of her husband's death, she has another vision of a young woman's body in the marsh. If that wasn't troubling enough, Nash, the boy she loved her entire life, the one who left and broke her heart, is back.

Are the two events connected? Emmy won't accept that, no matter who tries to connect the events. She knows Nash isn't capable of that kind of barbarism. However, there are others who are, and she fears those monsters may have decided it is time to bring their dark hungers back to Holly Isle.
