Blood on the tulips. Life is a Story - story.one

Book excerpt: After seven months, Mady's best friend is finally back at school but nothing is how it used to be. Burdened with fear, shame and pain the fifteen-year-old doesn't know what to do and who to turn to. If she told her best friend would she believe her? Would she help her? Could Mady even find the strength to say it out loud? For months she has tried to understand what happened to her, how she could have dealt with it differently and how to go back to normal. But there is no normal anymore. Her world was set aflame and it continues to burn. And so after summer break Mady finds herself unable to enter the school building, the place where the monster waits for her. Not that she's naive enough to think she's safe anywhere else. Wherever she goes insatiable eyes follow her path, dark growls sound in her ears, hot breath sears her skin, turning her dreams to ashes. Can the beast be stopped before Mady is consumed by its flames?
