Past Crimes

A short, fast-paced thriller with a paranormal twist. "Shema Israel, Adonai Elohanu, Adonai Ehad. I sat up in bed, the words of the dream still echoing in my mind. I hadn't understood them then, but I remembered them completely now. It was a prayer-the prayer Jews are most likely to say when dying." After the shocking murder of her husband, Ros and her baby relocate to her childhood home to live with her parents. Palm Springs, California-full of sunlight, small and safe-should be the perfect place to bring up a child. But things are not always as they appear. Soon, an unexpected tragedy sets a dangerous series of events into motion. Someone, it seems, is out to get Ros. As she struggles to uncover the identity of her mysterious enemy, Ros finds herself looking for answers in the most unusual places. Could the attacks have something to do with her increasingly disturbing dreams? And how many people close to her need to get hurt before she figures it out?
