The Inevitability of Dusk Swallowing Twilight

Jamaican-born Cre has been dragged around the world for years by her mother, who wandered in pursuit of love. When they finally return to their island home, Cre hopes to make a life there. She finds friends, develops relationships, and grows close to her home country. But all of that quickly changes one night with the arrival of her stepfather, David. With Cre's mother supposedly away in Canada, David tries to rape her. With no other option, Cre kills her stepfather. It soon comes to light, however, that David was not who he appeared to be; he is actually a ruthless crime boss, and Cre's friend, Stacy, suspects he may have killed Cre's mother. Now, Cre is on the run from David's murderous brother, Tanny. Tanny does all the dirty work and doesn't mind getting his hands bloody, but Cre has no intention of becoming one of his victims. Instead, she trains to kill. She will be ready when Tanny comes for her-if she doesn't decide to go after him first. She'll do anything to find out what happened to her mother and get her old life back-anything."
