Author’s Note
Author’s Note — A few years ago, I wrote a novel titled My Best Friend’s Exorcism, set in 1988 Charleston during the height of the Satanic Panic. The story followed two teenage girls who become convinced that one of them is possessed, resulting in a dark spiral of chaos and fear. Because it was told through a teenager’s eyes, the adults were portrayed as clueless and out of touch—just as they often appear when you’re young and overwhelmed. But that perspective is only half the story. From a…-

Prologue

Death has grown quiet in modern times, often masked by sterile hospital beds, silenced by ventilators and numbed by machines that bleep until they don’t. Five girls were brought into the world the same way many are—greeted not just with warmth but also with a rush of red, wrapped…-
