Transcription de la présentation

  1. Tick Tock By: Joana Coelho

  2. The Story (a BRIEF summary) A psychological thriller, Tick Tock is the story of Jaclyn Cunningham, a contradictory, sarcastic, insightful, and somewhat ridiculous woman, whose life's ambition is to bring her community together – by being a serial killer of course. Straight from the shores of the fictional Greek island of Koinonia, this female protagonist strives to show her point of view to her interrogator, Officer John Pedesto. In over 200 pages and 24 hours of dialogue, these two individuals form a tight bond in the confines of the gray interrogation room. Drawing from the ideas of Plato, John Locke, and Stephen King, this tale stresses the importance of community, trust, understanding, and finding one’s place in the world.
