BLOODPACT

Secrets between best friends can be the deadliest kind

“Stephenara...Stephenara...” My voice tolled, its echoes hollowed, swallowed and sundered my body, my heart, my soul, the classroom, the very air around me. I couldn't breathe. I crumbled like stale cake to my knees... Every particle of air had become a needle-fine claw, digging into each microscopic cell, hooking out everything that formed me -- scattering a red mist of pain. Blood splatter. My daughter was gone. I wanted to die, yet beneath, primal, I wanted to kill...”

Old sins have long shadows. As a child, Laird had rescued her best friend from a twisted and perverted man, so she wasn’t prepared for how her actions would eerily echo years later – like this: Her daughter is kidnapped, murdered…and Laird’s worst instincts are awakened when that serial child predator gets off on a technicality.

But Laird is a woman with a military background, of infinite patience, and long planning. The intricate plot she weaves to get her revenge is impenetrable, if she succeeds. The cat-and-mouse chase is between, not good and bad forces, but good and good, pitted here against each other…Law and Justice on opposing sides. Laird Rogan is one of those women who has been gifted with what is termed the juste milieu: equal parts beauty and strength, which makes her a formidable, and relentless, foe. Hunted by the police, she is protected by a long ago secret—a blood pact—that keeps her always one step ahead.

This is about the connections we make and those that are broken for us. Those that we break and those that endure, and those that are sundered, re-examined under frailty of pressures, re-forged in the crucible of fire--the human spirit triumphing over all.

Life is about choices. Sometimes the ones we make, terrible as they seem, are the only ones we can -- in order to remain true to ourselves, to values and principles that lie at the core of our being, and in the foundation of a life worth living.

Bloodpact is a love story about relationships – with ourselves, and those dearest to us; with those who rely on us; those whose presence we cherish and whose preciousness to us are fundamentally part of who we are– our strengths, our prayers – and perhaps, primarily, our relationship with our ideals. The promises we keep may test us; but in the end, they set us free. Our shadow self is always with us. Sometimes, our story begins, and ends, with a Bloodpact.
