"When a dead body is found on their college campus, a group of former classmates discover that it wasn't the first... and it won't be the last. It's been twenty-five years since the shocking disappearance of a student and the distinguished creative writing professor who died while searching for her. The Briarwood College community has never forgotten the terrible storm that caused the double tragedy. Now the college is bringing together faculty, donors, and alumni to honor the victims. On a cold December weekend after the fall semester has ended, guests gather on the vacant campus for the commemoratory event. But as a winter storm descends, people begin to depart, leaving a group of alumni. Recriminations and old rivalries flare as they recall the writing projects they shared as classmates, including chilling horror stories they each wrote about their greatest fears. When an alumna dies in a way shockingly similar to the story she wrote and then another succumbs to a similar fate, they realize someone has decided at long last to avenge the crimes of the past. Will the secret of what they did twenty-five years ago be revealed? Will any of them be alive at the end of the weekend to find out?"--Back cover.
