[2135] Signed in Blood
I'm looking for feedback on my murder mystery (chapter 1), please don't expect anything good it's my first time. Here's what I critiqued: https://www.reddit.com/r/DestructiveReaders/comments/1q0dw68/comment/nx0wqdn/?context=1
Rough blurb of my story: Students at Ebonleigh Hall keep dying in front of an audience. The only problem is there's no wound, weapon or killer in sight. And the poison used is too fast-acting for victims to have ingested it before their performance.
The story follows Iris, a morally grey perfectionist grasping for control, hiding behind an innocent mask, and Ella, a girl who's already fallen for the facade.
