  I saw my death coming. 
  It was staring me in the face through the eyes of another witch, but I was wrong. It’s an easy mistake to make, that your enemies would be the cause. Death didn’t come from the front. It didn’t even come from behind. No, my death came from the person I kept beside me for so many years. My heart-keeper, my savior, my protector, my husband, my killer… 
  Summer may have been the villain, but her story is one of survival and betrayal. Captured as a witch, she’s “recruited” to fight against the technomancers as a secret weapon. Her marriage to Donarick Thames sets in motion a vicious cycle of misfortune when her once-sweet husband starts to grow more violent, but in the meantime, she’s a badass witch who commands netherbeasts. 
  This novella contains spoilers for Sonata, book 2 of Lyra R. Saenz’s Nocturne Symphony. Readers who have not yet read Sonata are advised to pause before venturing further. 
  Additional Warnings: Mentions of rape, torture, domestic abuse, stillbirth/infanticide, and abortion.

  A fire had broken out in a building belonging to the Free Church congregation in Viserum. The actual sanctuary was spared, but an adjacent community hall was completely destroyed. This was the seventh fire at a religious site in Småland in recent times. 
  It had started with the Swedish Alliance Mission church in Värnamo on August 7th, and like the others that followed, it was confirmed to be arson. Murder by fire, the headlines screamed in bold type—which was also the accurate legal classification of the crime. The fires were now being investigated by Superintendent Peter Krantz and Inspector Pierre Valfridsson, both of whom had been sent from the Växjö police and were in charge of the overall case. 
  Krantz stood staring at a charred plank he held in his hand, cursing quietly to himself over having to investigate something he already believed he knew the answer to. 
  — That fucking idiot. We should’ve killed him back then, he said, looking meaningfully at his colleague, who gave a small nod. 
  — I know, I know, Valfridsson muttered sourly. But come on, we’ve got nothing, not a damn thing, and you know that... 
  He didn’t get further before Krantz snapped: 
  — Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know! Fuck, we should have killed the bastard. Goddamn it, he finished, moving away from the burned-out building. Krantz kicked at a few boards and threw the one he was holding over his head—nearly hitting one of the techs who was crouched down, digging through a trash bin by the side of the house. He strode out onto the cordoned-off street, shaking his head angrily while muttering about all the things he should have done.

  I'm all set for the ultimate winter escape: an adults-only cruise with my sweetheart Ezra, and my best friends Gilly and Pippa, along with their husbands.

  They arrive alive. They always leave dead. 
  But first, they give me their confessions. 
  My name is Jack Steen, and for those who arrive on my 'death' ward at the Asylum, I'm the last face many will see before they die. I am the night nurse at an Asylum for the Criminally Insane, and most of my patients know me as their Angel of Death. I know them as mass murderers, rapists, and serial killers - among other things. 
  Here's what happens: they come on my floor, they give me their deathbed confession, and I help to make their death less painful. There's a catch, though: I want the real story, the one they haven't told anyone else. 
  The majority of these killers are expert manipulators. They could be playing their final game with me by messing with my head. 
  Now, maybe they're messing with yours too. 
  Inside this book are 5 confessions: 
  One thought she gave birth to the antichrist. 
  One has the nickname of The Candyman - any guesses why? 
  One grew up in a cult and believes he's the first of a 'pure' race. 
  Another was part of a secret government test, and I've been waiting for his confession for a while! 
  Then there's this kid who loved Halloween and believed in all the rules. I sure hope you didn't break any... 
  WARNING: There is swearing in this book. And some stories might be a trigger for something you have a hard time handling. But, these are the confessions of serial killers, mass murderers, and such, so what do you expect?
