Killer

Ten years ago, a teenage boy makes a mistake that leaves his family in tattered ruins. Across town, a young girl is in the wrong place at the wrong time. Despite the distance, a single even leaves their lives shattered.



Britt must overcome grievous injuries, while Keller deems himself the KILLER that has to live with his selfish actions, and the path of death and misery left in his destructive wake.



Two people. One incident. This is the story of the aftermath of a school shooting. KILLER effortlessly weaves the lives of two damaged souls, chance circumstances bringing them together in ways they don't quite understand and a traumatic background neither of them knows they share.

Keller Keating—

"The fact I feel anything should let me know I’m headed in the wrong direction, headed down a path of darkness, destruction, and failure. A path that will dig out memories so painful I’ve created an entire persona to avoid dealing with them. Yet I know—I’m going down that path headfirst no questions asked, no matter the outcome.

I might be a monster, but I’m a selfish one."



Britton Reeves—

"When his strength envelops me, every wrong becomes right, every anxiety melts away, every doubt disappears. I feel calm, safe, whole. The spark of life that’s been missing inside me burns bright, lighting me up like a solar flare, sizzling white-hot through my veins. Keller brings me out of the darkness and into the light."
