Christopher Robin died today. 

I wonder how Winnie-the-Pooh would have felt had that announcement been made in the Hundred Acre Wood? In my world, it clangs and clatters against my consciousness, bringing me to my knees. 

Car versus tree. No seatbelt. No others involved. They’re still investigating the site, but it looks intentional. Intentional. Like suicide.

A GAME? OR A SELF-FULFILLING PROPHECY?

When a lifelong friend dies unexpectedly, Kyrie Ellison has more questions than answers.

Young, handsome, wealthy, and charismatic, Chris seemed to have it all: a loving wife, a beautiful house, the ideal job.

Then they played a game. Seven friends. Seven epitaphs. 

Two days later, he was dead.

PEOPLE AREN’T ALWAYS WHAT THEY SEEM…

Soon, unsettling allegations about Chris begin to surface, revealing cracks in his flawless facade. As his secrets come to light, Kyrie wonders how well she really knew him.

While Kyrie searches for the truth, she discovers that people aren’t always what they seem—and she may have misjudged even those she thought she knew best.

Chris’s epitaphs proved eerily prophetic. Will Kyrie’s be as prescient?

Book One in the epitaph trilogy.
