Crimson Grace

Pauline Lantier and Mary Catterick have lived difficult lives. Mistreated by the cruel and callous Blackwell family who employ them, the two young maids trudge through each day, silently bearing their fates. But when an encounter with Frederick, the family's eldest son, leaves him dead at their hands, they're faced with the gruesome and harrowing task of covering up his death. Imprisonment. Hanging. Eternal damnation. The spiritual and moral implications of ending a life weigh heavily on Pauline and Mary, driving them to the brink of madness. Can they stay sane long enough to make Frederick disappear into the mists of the moors, or will their own guilt consume them? Behind all their regret and fear, an even more frightening reality dawns on them: taking Frederick's life felt good, and they're glad he's gone. No matter how hard they cling to their morality, the voices of spirits, devils, and divine messengers constantly hound them to send the rest of the family to join Frederick in Hell. After all, what's there to lose? Take control of either Pauline or Mary as you navigate a twisted path that ends in redemption or revenge. Will you hide your crime, returning to your painful life and taking your sinful secret to the grave? Or will you let the bestial spirit of violence take control, and leave no witnesses behind? To overcome these challenges, you'll need quick hands and a sharp mind.
