by Anna DaviesTo tweet, or not to tweet . . . what a deadly question.When Jenna loses out on a starring role in the school's production of Hamlet, she reluctantly agrees to be the drama department's "social media director" and starts tweeting half-hearted updates. She barely has any followers, so when someone hacks her twitter account, Jenna can't muster the energy to stop it. After all, tweets like "Something's rotten in the state of Denmark . . . and a body's rotting in the theater" are obviously a joke. But then a body IS discovered in the theater: Jenna's rival. Suddenly, what seemed like a prank turns deadly serious. To everyone's horror, the grisly tweets continue . . . and the body count starts to rise. There's no other explanation; someone is live-tweeting murders on campus.With the school in chaos and the police unable to find the culprit, it's up to Jenna to unmask the psycho-tweeter before the carnage reaches Shakespearian proportions . . . or she becomes the next victim.
The Folly

She has spent the last six years campaigning for his release from prison. Finally, mid-pandemic, Owen is set free, but the debt-riddled pair can no longer afford (or bear) to live in the family home- a house last decorated by a dead woman&’s blood. Salvation and the chance for a new start in life comes in the form of a tall, dark and notorious decorative granite tower on the Cornish coastline known only as &‘The Folly&’. The structure is empty, prone to break-ins, and the owner needs a caretaker- food and bills included. It&’s an offer too good to refuse. Morgan and Owen relocate, leaving everything of their former lives behind and hoping that a change of scene and the remote location will be good for them both. At first, the Folly is indeed idyllic, but soon enough that peace is shattered when a bald-headed stranger arrives. A stranger who acts like Morgan&’s mother, talks like her mother, and wears her dead mother&’s clothes. What does he want? Why won&’t he leave them alone? Why does he keep mentioning the year 1976?And what secrets does the Folly tower hold?
