Missingbride Stories

She was meant to say I do. Instead, she showed up at the police station - drenched in rain, her red bridal dress torn and streaked with mud. > "I don't love him," she whispered. "And if I marry him... I'll die." Detective Reid Lawson thought he'd seen everything - until that night. But hours after she walked into his station, the bride vanished. Three days later, her body was found. Every fingerprint. Every trace of evidence. Every clue... leads back to him. As the case spirals out of control, Reid begins to hear her voice - soft, familiar, haunting. Now he doesn't know what's real anymore. Is he going mad? Is his mind turning against him - or has someone set him up for her murder? He has to find the truth before the whispers become screams... and before he ends up behind bars for a crime he doesn't remember committing.
