Last of the Autumn Rain: The Storm Within

No one is born into this world to become a serial killer… but what if they are? What happens when a person is driven by forces beyond human understanding and is powerless to stop? A Hitchcockian soul-stirring mystery thriller, Last of the Autumn Rain follows Julie Cromwell as she evolves from a loving child born to wealthy socialite parents into a spine-chilling murderess.

“In the depths of darkness, where the lines between reality and madness blur, true horror reveals itself: the demons we can’t escape, the voices we can’t silence, and the shadows we can’t outrun. Yet, in the heart of terror, lies a glimmer of hope —the chance to comfort, to heal, and to rise above the shattered fragments of our minds.”

- Diana Louise Webb
