[Deviant Games 00] • Crucible

*The smallest towns have the darkest secrets.*

**Raelynn Davenport.**

*An elusive beauty queen with a sordid past.*

**The Blackwoods.**

*A prominent family with a graveyard full of tortured skeletons.*

The plan couldn't have been simpler.

All I had to do was swap my big city life and tarnished reputation for a fresh start in a small town.

Catching the immediate attention of said town's heart-throbs was nowhere on my agenda.

Unapologetic about their true intentions, I find myself in the center of a game that has no concept of moral aptitude.

All I *wanted* was peace.

All they *crave* is madness.

And in this game, losing isn’t an option.

Not when we're playing for my life.
