Girl A
Page 27
She had no choice. She did it to save her mother. And to save herself. But that didn’t mean she hadn’t relished it.
With one final glance downwards, she folded the package up again, placing it back into its casing, firmly locking it and replacing the key around her neck. She crossed to the bookcase, pushing a few of the tomes aside. She slid the box to the back of a tall shelf, replacing the books in front of it.
She needed these keepsakes. They were part of her, and she was part of them. Besides, she liked how they made her feel. The buzz. The power.
They reminded her what she was capable of.
Despite all the years she had spent denying it, there was no escaping what she had done.
She would always be the girl who got away with murder.
THE END
Acknowledgements
First of all, I’d like to thank Colin, for supporting me through this entire process, and giving me the kick I needed at times to keep going. It’s a scary step taking a dream and turning it into a reality, so to have wonderful friends and family giving me the encouragement I needed to carry on has been a game changer. So to the handful of special people who have stood by me every step of the way… you know who you are, and I love you.
I’d also like to thank each and every one of my readers, who have truly given me the confidence to carry on writing. It’s been a rollercoaster of a year, but for me, nothing will ever take away the feeling of releasing my debut and knowing that people enjoyed it. To those of you who took the time to let me know your thoughts, feelings and opinions, who spoke to me about my characters as if they were real people… you ROCK! Without you guys, there wouldn’t be any point in me creating my stories, so I will be eternally grateful to all of you. Thank you!
