The truth is never black and white
This is about three deaths. Actually more, if you go back far enough. I say deaths but perhaps all of them were murders. Its a grey area. Murder, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. So lets just call them deaths and say I was involved. This story could be told a hundred different ways.
University life is full of perfect strangers, charismatic academics and instant best friends. Pen Sheppard fits in by reinventing herself and wiping away her past, never thinking that others might be doing the same thing. But keeping secrets can become obsessive and betrayal deadly. Within six months three students are dead. Should Pen remain silent Or will she be compelled to talk, to excuse, to explain or perhaps confess
