Out on a limb for a killer!

In the whimsical small town of Bisque, filled with fur babies and friendly faces, lives a dapper cat detective, Sir Percival. With his keen intellect, a flair for the dramatic (and of course impeccable grooming), he believes he embodies the essence of a gentleman.

One fateful night, all seems well as Christmas lights and glittering snowflakes usher in a peaceful end to the day. But perched atop a towering Christmas tree, Sir Percival’s vigilant gaze spots a shadowy intruder lurking near a home down the street! His concern for the spirited little dog who resides there, compels him to embark on a daring nighttime escapade. But the shocking discovery in the little dog’s backyard is more than just a mischievous intruder–it’s a dead body.

Determined to solve the mystery and protect their humans, Sir Percival enlists the help of his newfound friend, Fidget. Together, they unravel clues that lead them through a web of betrayal, eccentric neighbors, and buried secrets!

In the dark and mysterious world of Masked Mayhem, not everything that glitters is really gold. Those concealed behind masks hide far more than just their identities; beneath it lay their fears, their desires, and the commitment to a life that has become painfully surreal.
Here, darkness knows no bounds.
Mayhem’s grip is relentless, trapping you like the intoxicating first taste of the devil’s poison that you find impossible to resist.

☠️ 𝐁𝐋𝐔𝐑𝐁 ☠️

Keira
I was born with darkness in my veins.
My name is Keira Hill. I’m the daughter of one of the country’s most notorious serial killers.
I hide in plain sight. Pretending to fit in. Pretending I’m not haunted by my father’s skeletons.
In two months’ time, he’s scheduled to be executed.
With a copycat killer on the loose, my world is turned upside down when I find myself at the center of the killer’s twisted mind games—the queen on the chessboard.
If I want to win, I must embrace my own darkness.
The legacy I have spent my life running from.
I must play the game.

King
It started out as a silly dare. Fuck Jimmy Hill’s daughter. But it quickly morphed into something far more.
Especially now that Blackwoods is terrorized by a vicious serial killer who has his eyes on Keira, the girl who’s quickly slithering inside my veins.
I’m the only one who sees her—the only one who knows how to purge her darkness. The only one twisted enough to match it with my own and offer it back in spades.
The only problem? Keira belongs to someone else.
As if that will ever stop me.
