~Her insides are rotting. She can smell her own decay~ Amorey has nothing to look forward to. She spends most of her time sleeping, and when she isn't sleeping strange thoughts overtake her. Sometimes she starts to think she isn't real. The only activity that makes her actually want to get out of bed is working in her tomato garden. Still, this isn't enough to rid her of the incredible feelings of isolation and loneliness that are crushing her. She often wishes that Nita was still around, but her older sister left home when she was sixteen, after a falling out with their father, and Amorey has rarely seen her since. Then, everything changes. Amorey is reunited with her mysterious half-sister Rachel. Amorey can barely remember the anxious and disfigured girl who came to stay with her family one fateful winter, the same winter that her mother died in a tragic fire. Despite this, Amorey finds herself becoming close to Rachel very quickly. She isn't Nita, but it's still nice to have a sister again. It doesn't take long for the two to form an intense bond. When Rachel tells Amorey that she purchased the plot of land where their mother died, and asks Amorey to come to New Hampshire with her, Amorey feels like she finally has the purpose she has been lacking in her life. Amorey loves the idea. This new sisterly bond seems like a dream come true. But dreams distort into maddening nightmares, as the two take up residence deep in the woods of the New Hampshire mountains. As Amorey twists about in the unknown, wondering if she can trust this burnt and angry young woman, something dark settles into her heart. An icky has dug its claws into her. She can feel it killing her. Her insides are rotting. She smell her own decay.
