A ruby red obsession...

Rock bottom. Familiar with it?

I'm living it.

It's a high school expulsion and a dead end job.

A future as a pathetic nobody.

But you know what they say about rock bottom?

There's nowhere to go but up.

I've got an ace up my sleeve. Or rather...a ruby.

Priceless. Magical.

A wicked jewel that can raise the dead.

There's only one problem.

I don't have it…

Yet.

It's hidden in an old mansion by the sea.

You know the kind. There's one in every small town.

A house with an overgrown lawn and a grave or two.

Locals whisper about the ruby's bloody history.

Tales of murder, madness, and curses…

But that's just a load of crap.

Made up to scare off treasure hunters and tomb raiders.

Right?

Good thing I'm neither of the above.

I'm just a girl trying to make ends meet.

Every story needs a hero.

Every hero sheds a little blood...
