Chance Brooks amassed an incredible fortune before the age of thirty. The constant workload burned him out, so while at one of his Christmas parties while speaking to a friend, he decided he would retire to a tiny island she spoke of. Two months later, Chance had placed the final signature on the final sale of his vast holdings, and he was free to move to his new property on Fox Island. Chance couldn’t believe a place like the village of Fox existed. He fell in love with the island and his new home when he saw pictures of it. His first days on the island were perfect. Chance spent the evenings sitting on his deck looking into the vastness of the Milky Way. Chance Thought nothing could improve the island, but then he met and fell in love with Lv. She was perfect, Chance thought; he knew Lv’s mother. She had been the real estate agent who sold him the Humpries home. Nothing could dampen his love for the island or his new home, Chance thought. Then, one night, as a storm approached the island, something moved along the fence that stopped anyone from falling fifty feet to the shore below. Chance sat on his deck trying to see what the thing was, and then it crawled over the fence and started across the lawn towards him.
