Description
The clock was ticking, measuring time down to the last second. The last heartbeat. The last breath. The last moment I would have on this Earth. It was a slippery slope and I knew when I saw the bottom, that was it. My time was up. When Georgiana Vertigo was given only a handful of years left to live, it was hard to see the possibilities of what the future could bring. With the past locked away in the dark recesses of her mind, Georgiana set off to live the last few years as best as she could. Quicker than any Slayer before her, she worked her way up the ranks of Sword & Arrow to become the Guild's Second in Command. When it comes time for the current Leader to step down and chose a successor, Georgiana is her would-be choice. However, before she can step into the role, she must solve the current case she is working on. A serial killer is murdering prominent members of the Otherworld community and leaving them on display in very public, very human places. It's not the first murder case she's ever worked but there is something different about this one. The simple assignment is soon made difficult when the latest intended victim survives and she's forced to protect him. A task that should be easy, even with the time constraint of solving the case in a week, but it's clear everything will become complicated when she learns who she'll be protecting and who is committing the murders.
