    Description:
    When Mia's boyfriend Ash vanishes, he leaves behind a chilling set of rules and a monthly deposit of $13,750. All she has to do is stay inside their luxurious villa. Simple, right? But the rules are terrifyingly specific: don't eat food with red eyes, don't wear the red fur in the closet, don't sleep on the bed if it bleeds. And a final, ominous warning: trust your roommates, but not completely. Mia dismisses it as a bizarre joke—until she learns Ash died the day before he was with her. Now, trapped within the villa's walls with her eerily compliant roommates—Scarlett, Mona, and Luna—Mia realizes the rules are a matter of life and death. A plate with human eyes appears at her door, and the line between reality and nightmare blurs. To survive and uncover the truth behind Ash's death, Mia must navigate a web of deception, supernatural horror, and the sinister secrets hidden in the very home meant to be her gilded cage. Can she follow the rules long enough to escape, or will breaking one be her last mistake?

    When Cash happens upon two small graves in the yard of a rural, “speak-intongues kinda church,” she is pulled into the lives of the pastor and his wife while yet another Native woman turns up dead and her newborn is nowhere to be found.

    Arthur Beauchamp takes a break from the courtroom to write a memoir so he can set the record straight about a headline murder case he fought as a young lawyer in 1966. The trial would either mark him as a pathetic loser or thrust him into the top ranks of criminal counsel.
    		 
    The background: in 1966, a young housemaid was raped by her employer, a callous and vindictive millionaire. She shot him point blank, so it seemed an open-and-shut case of first-degree murder. Enter Arthur Beauchamp, a young lawyer haunted by having bungled his only previous murder case. He is now called upon to defend a case that he is almost certain can’t be won. But as the trial speeds through twists and turns, his slashing cross-examinations bring hope that the jury might entertain a reasonable doubt.
    		 
    In the present time, Arthur learns that writing about his social gaffes, booze, and sex is not easy, especially as his efforts are regularly interrupted by the quirky characters who inhabit his supposedly idyllic Garibaldi Island.
