…Dean and Alyson looked at their friends, a fragile hope beginning to bloom in the darkness. They had taken a leap of faith, and it seemed, for the first time in days, that they weren’t alone. The weight on their shoulders felt a little lighter, the fear a little less all-consuming. The mystery of the masked killer, the black rose, and the tarnished locket had just become their shared burden. And as the night deepened, a new determination settled over the four friends, a quiet resolve to uncover the truth, no matter how dark it might be. Liam, still holding the locket, felt its cool metal against his palm. He had a feeling this was just the beginning.
