It was August 24th when morning staff and early-rising students discovered at daybreak a noose hanging from the overpass between the two St. Aubade’s Academy campuses. Mysteriously, the noose indicated no signs of wear and tear. Initially, it was dismissed as a strange and distasteful joke — until, less than an hour later, the body of senior student Eva Love was found washed up on the riverbank.
Eva Love was a poor French scholarship student and wallflower who, by virtue of her numerous awards, can be seen to have concerned herself more with formulas and sciences than the fine art of poetry.
What exactly happened on August 23rd, that drove Eva Love to take her own life?
And, in such a way?
Perhaps, only Eva and the twelve boys involved know the full story. However, there’s more to come. Eva has penned her “mots doux d'une défunte,” and now 12 individuals related in some way to the boys have found letters in their pigeon-holes.
A witness, a rival, a sibling…
No matter who you are, user, it’s up to you how you receive this letter. And, more importantly, what to make of it. Just know that the scariest monsters are not those lurking under your bed frame, but those that hold your conversation with a smile. It’s not just a letter. It’s an invitation.
