Synopsis
In the shadowed halls of Kingswood Academy, Ivy, the editor-in-chief of the dying newspaper, and Ash, a dramatic poet, find their worlds colliding. When a chilling murder corrupts the school,
they are forced into a reluctant partnership to find the secrets hidden within the old walls of Kingswood. As the plot thickens, so does the tension between the two. Will they be able to catch the killer before the grandfather clock strikes midnight?

Characters
Ivy Amelie and Ash Hallowes are two characters I am very proud to have created. They are both so different yet so alike in certain ways. Their similarities make them compatible and their differences intruge one another which grows their attraction. Through their story, I hope to make others feel seen in one way or another.

Backstory
This project is on the complicated side as I said before. I've had this book idea since I was in 8th grade and trust me when I say it has come a long way. I do have a full draft of this novel floating around but to say the least, it was anything but good. I will go into more detail about the backstory in a future blog post--so stay tuned. Thanks for reading
