Serial Killer's Sister: A Tangled Web of Promises and Betrayal
In a chilling twist of fate, a woman named Anna finds herself embroiled in a dangerous game with her little brother, Henry, who is suspected of being a serial killer.

As children, Anna and Henry were raised in an abusive home with an alcoholic mother and an unknown father. Their shared hardships led them to make a childhood vow, sealing their bond with a promise to protect one another. Anna, then ten, was the older sister, and the two ended up in a children's home.
Years later, Anna has built a happy life for herself as a teacher in a private school, married and living by the sea. She has no idea where Henry is, their paths having diverged long ago.
