Secrets That Bind Us in Blood
In the quiet town of Arden Hills, three sisters stand on their porch, hands freshly scrubbed clean, as police arrive to investigate their parents' deaths. Emma, the oldest, has already instructed her sisters on what to say. This moment marks the beginning of a conspiracy of silence that will define their lives for fourteen years. What really happened that night? The truth is splintered between them-each sister holding a fragment, none possessing the complete picture. Their childhood home wasn't just a house but a prison of psychological warfare where their mother Irene maintained rigid control while their father Randolph hid criminal activities behind a veneer of respectability. For the Palmer sisters, their parents' deaths represented both tragedy and liberation-a duality that would haunt them into adulthood.
