A Young Adult Mystery/Thriller by Aeter

In the quiet town of Silver Hollow, Massachusetts, the past never stays buried.

Fourteen-year-old Charlie Monroe wants nothing more than to escape the shadow of her sister’s mysterious disappearance. But when a white rose and a cryptic note appear in her locker on the first day of high school, she’s pulled into a deadly game of secrets, stalkers, and lies. Each year, a new message. A new flower. A new killer.

With the help—and sometimes betrayal—of friends old and new, Charlie fights to uncover the truth behind her sister’s fate and the sinister force known only as The Crow, a hidden mastermind orchestrating each attack from the shadows. As the body count rises and trust wears thin, Charlie must confront her darkest fears and decide just how far she’s willing to go to survive.

Blending gripping suspense, emotional coming-of-age, and psychological horror, the Charlie Monroe series is a five-book journey through grief, obsession, and the chilling realization that the monster might be closer than she thinks.
