Before The Eighth

<p><i>“I hate this process of cleaning up one after the other burning the mistakes and fears just to see the ashes reforming and then burning them down again. And one day the flame that is supposed to burn the fears down burns our fragile lifeline but its ashes don’t reform. Instead we go away as dust and memories.”</i></p><p>For Samuel Colton it was the death of his girlfriend. For Muriel Payton it was her childhood friend. For Layla Beckett it was her best friend. For Aiden Hunter it was his only companion. For Evan Miles it was his friendly neighbour. </p><p>Five deaths. Fivelove ones. A single connection. </p><p>With his friends Samuel embarks on a journey oflove friendship loss and pain fighting battles and overpowering demons that lurk in his life. You could maybe call this a tale of valour friendship hope and strength. But above all this is a tale of loss and death. </p>
