An acclaimed, award-winning thriller, published and translated around the world, now freely available on Wattpad. Paul Wood is a modern vagabond, a man who chooses to leave the comforts of San Francisco to spend months backpacking through some of the world's most challenging terrain. While hiking in the Himalayas, Paul gets more of a rush than he bargained for when he finds the body of a murdered hiker - mutilated in a way he has witnessed once before, in Africa, years ago and thousands of miles away. The police in Nepal, anxious to quell a scandal, close the case and declare the victim a suicide. Only Paul is left to search for answers. He reaches out to his farflung tribe of fellow backpackers for help, and his discoveries lead him to a terrible conclusion: a killer is stalking the international backpacker trail, preying on victims in wild places far beyond the reach of any authorities. A killer whom Paul may already know. Finding the murderer becomes an obsession that leads Paul from Himalayan peaks, through the jungles of Indonesia, across the bleak Sahara desert -- and into some of the darkest places imaginable... Dark Places won the 2005 Arthur Ellis Award for Best First Novel. Reviews "You're hooked ... the characters are delightfully delineated ... beautifully controlled ... Evans contrives to slip the necessary specialist net-head detail into the plot without being boring or patronising. He can also pin down a character with a few details deftly brushed in ... A pacy thriller for the 21st century." - The Times "Anyone would enjoy Evans' clever, relentlessly absorbing debut thriller that becomes a lot more than just another serial-killer mystery." - The Ottawa Citizen "In this haunting suspense debut, Evans takes the reader on a page-turning adventure across five continents ... (a) spooky, inventive tale." - Publishers Weekly

WEREWOLF MFM ROMANCE Gabriella had always known she was different from the other children. She was shipped from therapist to therapist, doctor to doctor, diagnosis to diagnosis, but until she met Luka and Will, nothing ever helped. Those two boys were the only people she had ever been able to relate to, and as a trio, they discovered the reason for their difference: they weren't human. They were werewolves, born from bloodlines where the gene had lay dormant for over 400 years. It was all going so well, too, until Gabriella decided to make a terrible decision and the three were split up. Six years later, they met again, and found a whole lot more to discover about themselves and werewolf dynamics. Primarily about why they felt all those sparks all the time...

Percy had been forced to find himself within the midst of being the focal point of two impossible wars. Someway, somehow, along that journey he'd met Annabeth. His comrades would say he was made for war, his father would tell him he was born to be a leader. Hell had made him into the strongest demigod to ever live. But Percy didn't buy all of that nonsense. He was convinced of just one thing. He was made for lovin' her. And no one could tell him otherwise. Not even Annabeth herself, and when she challenged him playfully. He showed her own serious he was. (A 77JD77 Mature Percabeth One-Shot)
