The Serpent Bearer

Breathe. Just breathe. Sometimes that's all it takes to wipe away the bad memories. Other times, the swallowing darkness lurches Dani awake in a cold sweat, the bloodcurdling screams still echoing in her ears...

But this year will be different-it has to be. This year Dani will lead her college lacrosse team to a championship and get into med school-and what's wrong with having a little fun to keep her grounded?

Except it's not so simple when the painful memories keep threatening to destroy everything she has worked so hard for...

Dustin, Dani's student mentor, is in his final year of medical school. He has enough weight on his shoulders with family concerns and the pressure of his upcoming graduation-the last thing he needs is a rambunctious mentee who doesn't take her studies seriously. Is she even worth his time?

Dani and Dustin are determined to conquer their own trials; however, nobody sees the tumultuous, cataclysmic storm of events brewing on the horizon.

And amid such an unprecedented storm with no clear skies in sight, not even the strongest walls can stand for long.
