  At first, the sound was subtle. A low, almost imperceptible tapping just on the edge of hearing, and yet, from the moment I heard it, the sound conjured that phrase: ‘The patter of tiny feet.’I had always hated that expression, ‘the patter of tiny feet.’ Even as a child, the words had sent a chill through me. I knew, of course, what they were supposed to mean, the joy of offspring, the sound of children in some other room or just out of view, playing merrily and creating said patter with their mischievous stumbling back and forth.

But that was for others...

  It was supposed to be the party of the century: miles of idyllic white sand beaches, lush jungle foliage...and a dark legend nobody dreamed might be all too true. 
  When an online influencer and several hundred of his most loyal fans land on Prosperity Island, the plan is simple: five days of elaborate games, drinking, and suntanned fun. 
  A week in paradise should have been a welcome respite. The only survivor of an infamous cult, Ruth wants nothing more than to keep her head down and not draw attention. She's spent decades outrunning her blood-soaked childhood, and her identity is a closely held secret. 
  But then the true history of the island is revealed…along with its sinister connection to Ruth's past. As guests go missing and games turn deadly, Ruth and the rest of the attendees are forced to question whether they've really been invited to paradise...or whether something much darker―and far bloodier―is waiting for them just beyond the bonfire's light.

  "No Astra, Queen of Vampires had a vision on a crime scene!" said Lance. 
  "What's new my granddaughter is a medium!" Dr. Alexander moaned. 
  "But what she saw wasn't real!" said Lance 
  "Then why tell us, if it is not real!" said Dante who was trying to clean the blood off the pages of the bloody papers. 
  "What did she see?" asked Dr. Alexander. 
  "A white raven sitting on a human skull blood running from the nose hole of the skull in a dark place," said Lance turning white. 
  "It means you Dad your symbol is a white raven, the skull symbol of death." 
  "What is that meant to mean?" said Dante. 
  "Blue Midnight is going to die or I am King of the grim reapers!" snapped Blake shortly. 
  "What about the bloody nose?" asked Dante. 
  "Blood of death!" said Lance. 
  "What does that mean!" said Dante. 
  "There will be blood!" said Blake. 
  "Don't be a drama queen!" scoffed Lance. 
  "It's just an omen they happen someone is trying to reveal me, the Emperor of the solar system as a grim reaper!" Blake moaned, "and my blood relatives! Wouldn't put it past this guy on the slab! He has the motivation and he didn't know Astra was one of my kin who knew who I was! Come with me you two!" a portal of darkness swirled in the air.
