Crows Like Things That Sparkle

We had been dating for ten years before my boyfriend, Shawn Jepson, agreed to marry me.  When the wedding photographer asked us to pose a few kissing shots, Shawn claimed he had germophobia and walked out on me.  I awkwardly apologized to the team.  Taxis were a rare commodity during blizzards, so I trudged through the snow to get home.  To my dismay, I stumbled upon Shawn tongue-deep into his crush’s throat in what was supposed to be our marital home.  “Just say the word, Casey, and I’ll leave Jessica.”  Later, word went around that Shawn searched the world for his ex-fiancee, begging her to return.

Isang trahedya ang yumanig sa katahimikan ng marangyang buhay ni Ana Villa—nahulog sa bangin ang kanyang sasakyan at natagpuang wasak sa kailaliman ng dagat. Ngunit ang katawan niya, hindi kailanman nakita. Ang mundo ng mga Villa ay nilukob ng lungkot at hiwaga, ngunit para kay Belle, ang kanyang kakambal, ang trahedyang ito ay hindi isang aksidente—ito’y isang maingat na planong pagpatay.

Lingid sa kaalaman ng lahat, si Sheila ang utak sa likod ng pagkamatay ni Ana, dala ng matagal nang pagkamuhi nito kay Ana dahil inagaw nito sa kanya si Luke dahil may lihim siyang pag-ibig dito. Habang nilalaro ni Belle ang papel ng kanyang kambal. Dito, natagpuan ang takot at pag-asa na magkasama, habang unti-unting nahuhulog ang kanyang puso kay Luke. Sa gitna ng labanan ng pagmamahal, takot, at paghihiganti, sino ang talo at sino ang mananatiling buhay?At paano makakaligtas si Belle mula sa bitag ng pagmamahal nito para kay Luke?
