Can Such Things Be? implies and relates that anything is possible, at any time.

At rare times, when you manage to strike just the right balance, a feeling of contentment reigns supreme.

Ivy, Cal und Mateo kennen den Toten, der vor ihnen liegt – und eigentlich sollten sie jetzt die Polizei rufen. Doch sie alle haben eine Verbindung zum Opfer.
