Deception

Susanna stared at her father’s body on the floor, his life’s blood still pooling near his head. She’d murdered her own father and even as she stepped slowly away from the horror, knew that there was more terror in her future. Soon, a man with a badge would come through that door, arrest her and then they’d slide a black hood over her head, and she’d plunge into cold darkness before her receiving her final, eternal sentence.
Susanna could only see one path to avoid that demonic fate – she would have to lie.
