“Life tried so hard to cling to this place that all it did was make death sink in deeper.” “You can bury your past but don’t be surprised when it comes back to haunt you.” “Everyone lived in their own world, even when they were right next to each other.” Collage of photos: girls in dresses sitting in the grass, boat in blue waters, curtains at dusk glowing orange, melted chocolate poured over stacks of chocolate chunks, field of blue flowers with sun shining, girl in dress spinning in circles on grassy hill, messy pile of old photos, woman and child holding hands, rose bush, sunlight through tree leaves, a woman submerged in dark water reaching out, a woman in a white dress running away from something while barefoot in grass, restaurant with blue chairs by the sea at sunset, graves in the middle of a dark forest, girl in dark water with a white dress and arm over her chest and white roses over her torso, a man peering through the woods with a flashlight at night, a man and a woman dancing under a starry night, field of blue flowers in a forest, hands reaching up from water through lily pads, dragonfly wing close up, shadows of two friends back-to-back making finger guns

On an island quietly haunted by ghosts of grieving women, a depressed chocolatier teams up with five strangers—with scars of their own—to find their killer. Of the six, only five are really alive.

“She makes death taste like chocolate.” Picture of a girl in a white dress in a dark lake with her arm over her chest and white roses over her torso. “Grave of flowers by Dua Ceren Ay” Grave of Flowers by Dua Ceren Ay Opening Lines: Every sane person knows better than to paint their walls eggshell white, but electric blue? That had to be a crime. Like whoever decided on the color scheme of this place was avoiding the topic altogether; yes, we were all crazy in here, and yes, we all knew they wanted to avoid the clichés. So, no straitjackets, no padded rooms, no dull hospital gowns, just rooms and rooms and rooms of color until we bored ourselves to sleep or knocked ourselves out from the overstimulation. We had Kelsie the high schooler folks who had become regulars around here liked to call Iron Fist—to thank for that demonstration. It was just that the windows didn't open from the bottom, everything had a soft edge or lock, and the nurses had a way of always smiling at us as if we birthed their children. It was the little things that poked me. So it was even more ridiculous that the early morning hour made the place seem... peaceful. Comps. A Flicker in The Dark by Stacy Willingham: past repeats itself, small town, investigation. The Midnight Library by Matt Haig: Depressed MC, Magical Realism, Healing and new beginnings. Anxious people by Fredrik Backman: dysfunctional group of friends, social isolation, hope Tropes: found family, unreliable narrator, treasure hunt/investigation, lost memories, small town. Themes: second coming-of-age, feminism, identity, overcoming trauma, friendship

GRAVE OF FLOWERS (95k words)

Would you trust your childhood memories enough to stalk the woods in search of a killer you’ve labeled the angel-devil man?

Would you do it to save 19 women?

Collage of green tinted images top left to bottom right: four young women sitting in the grass and talking, a girl in a white dress running away from something barefoot in the grass, an eerie man peering through the woods with a flashlight, a man and a woman dancing under the night sky, a graveyard in the middle of a forest, stacks of chocolate with melted chocolate poured on top, foggy woods at night, a woman submerged under water reaching out, a woman in a dark lake with white flowers over her body, the shadows of two female friends standing back-to-back and making finger guns.

9x9 board of photos (top left to bottom right): dark rose bush, dark blue woods at night with fog, quote that reads, “I learned about death by being alive… or maybe I’ve tried it myself.” Starting second row: Closeup of a dragonfly wing, a girl floating in dark water with white flowers, hands reaching up from a dark lake with lily pads, a quote that reads, “we were strangers bound by a shared past, entangled in the present, with no promise of a future.” Forget-me-nots, a man and a woman dancing against a starry sky The same image from before with arrows pointing out to show tropes from the story which are: found family, haunted woods, past repeats itself, dual timeline, ghosts, repressed memories, investigation, and strong female characters. Two new images to replace the quotes from the previous board: a dark field of flowers in a forest tinted blue, a woman’s hands and body submerged under water reaching out.

Square of nine images. Top left to bottom right: a girl running away barefoot in the grass. A woman and child holding hands. A field of flowers in a dark forest. Bright curtains at sunset. A quote reading “beautiful places hide hideous pasts.” Four girls sitting in a field happy and talking. A woman’s hands reaching from dark water. Pile of old Polaroid photos. A dark graveyard in a forest.
