The Knot Frays
The Death Games #1
Kiz V.J. Moncrieff
Something old, something new, something borrowed... something deadly.
In the alluring grandeur of The Knot Frays, engaged couple Hayden Cain and Cameron Daniels stand on the precipice of a new life together. Their path to wedded bliss is lined with antique splendour and ethereal beauty, serving as a breathtaking backdrop to their prenuptial event. An ancestral home steeped in history and mystery, Bloodmoon Manor’s sombre charm bewitches, while the game it offers promises a thrilling evening to remember.
As they delve deep into the game, a chilling secret unravels. The manor doesn’t play fair, and it has chosen the most ruthless game of all - deceit. As Cameron’s clandestine affair lays bare, old friendships fracture, and the group teeters on the brink of collapse. Unbeknownst to them, a more sinister game unfolds; a horrifying countdown where the stakes are their own lives.
The spectre of death descends thick and fast, consuming guests one by one. With the circle dwindling and fear amplifying, can they unravel the manor’s cryptic clues to outwit death itself? Or will their past mistakes come back to haunt them, proving fatal?
And there’s a wicked twist in the tale. As shadows loom and sanity threatens to unravel, a chilling revelation surfaces - only one can survive. But who?
Imagine your own fate tangled in this tantalizingly terrifying tapestry of desire, deception, and death. Can you uncover the secret before the last knot frays? Or will you too be a mere whisper in the haunting echoes of Bloodmoon Manor?
