Twisted Reign - Paperback

by Karen Guyler (Author), Mary Stone (Author)

You can twist the truth, but you can't escape it.
Following her recent move back to the small Appalachian town where she grew up, memories shrouded in mystery haunt Indie Reign at every turn. Her family brutally taken. Her grandmother's unexplainable disappearance. And her unique gift with animals that no one can know about. Especially now that she's the Sherwood County Sheriff Department's new probationary K-9 detective.

Day one on the job, and death is already waiting.

A teenage girl is discovered hanging from a swing in her backyard. At first glance, it looks like suicide. But Indie's instincts say otherwise. Over the past eight months, the small town has mourned four suicides and six accidental deaths-all under eighteen. And three of the dead teens left behind a single, chilling word.

Ascension.

Indie doesn't believe in coincidences. Only patterns. And with the help of her new partner, Officer Broc-a sharp-minded Belgian Malinois with a nose for danger-she starts to unravel a disturbing truth. A hidden online community is targeting vulnerable kids, promising transformation through death.

Someone doesn't think they're killing teens.

They think they're saving them.

Twisted Reign is the gripping first book in the Indie Reign series by bestselling authors Mary Stone and Karen Guyler, where redemption, delusion, and justice collide-and survival demands sacrifice.
