Shadows That Never Fade: The Weight of a Serial Killer's Legacy
When I was twelve, I learned that monsters don't hide under beds-they tuck you into them. My father, Richard Davis, the respected pharmacist of Breaux Bridge, Louisiana, was arrested for murdering six teenage girls during one sweltering summer. I was the one who found the evidence: a collection of trinkets hidden in his shed-hair ribbons, friendship bracelets, small mementos stolen from each victim. That discovery shattered my childhood and set me on a path I never chose. Twenty years later, I've rebuilt my life in Baton Rouge as a psychologist specializing in trauma. I have a successful practice, a modernist home, and a fiance from old money. I've created distance-ninety carefully measured miles-from my hometown and its memories. But when teenage girls start disappearing again, with frightening similarities to my father's crimes, the carefully constructed walls of my new life begin to crumble. The past isn't just haunting me; it's hunting me.
