Why did I return to the big Victorian farmhouse on the hill, with the cliff nearby? I have a rendezvous with fate. That's what I am here again.

I look at my half-brother Robert and see the silent horror in his face. I fear for his sanity - and mine. But most of all, I fear that I will never be able to leave Hilltop alive!
