Hours of Darkness:

Book One in the 'Hours' Trilogy

(The 'Hours' Series 1)


"In 'Hours of Darkness,’ the first novel in the trilogy by V.F. Molloy, readers follow Lauren Daniels, a stunning yet introverted teenager. Her life takes a surprising turn due to financial constraints, forcing her to leave her private school and enroll in affluent Reddington High School. Little did anyone know, this decision would change Lauren's life forever."

Lauren Daniels, a seventeen-year-old, shares an inseparable bond with her beautiful mother, Jennifer Daniels, who is also her best friend. Despite her outward beauty, Lauren is an introverted and reserved student at an all-girls private school. She finds solace in her beloved library, where she immerses herself in romance novels and dreams of finding true love one day.

Surrounded by the opulence of Reddington's mansions and affluence, Lauren and her mother challenge to make ends meet in their cozy, modest home. Sudden financial difficulties force Lauren to leave her private school, shattering the carefully constructed world of anonymity, literature, and solitude she held dear.
Lauren enters the affluent community of Reddington High School and is initially embraced by the inner circle of pretty, well-dressed, popular girls. However, envy and resentment quickly destroy her as Julia and Amber, two malicious individuals, hatch a vengeful plot against her.

Lauren's life takes a swift and irreversible turn when she becomes the target of a sinister and life-altering act of vengeance. She fights to survive the trauma, battling the shadows that engulf her, retreating even deeper into her own world.

After a devastating loss, Lauren is forced to leave her bubble and cherished childhood home, propelling her into adulthood and employment. She immerses herself in Boston's corporate landscape, where she doubts whether she can navigate the next chapter of her life.

This gripping drama, infused with suspense and underscored by themes of love, loss, and the enduring strength of family bonds, solidifies V.F. Molloy's "Hours of Darkness" as a compelling exploration of the human experience in the face of adversity.
