    When the bleeding started, Nurse Jessica knew exactly what to do - but nothing around her was enough. No ambulance. No blood. No backup.

And now, the same people who ignored the danger are calling Jessica a murderer. Suspended from duty and facing a public investigation, Jessica refuses to keep quiet. What really killed Adaeze wasn't incompetence or witchcraft - it was a broken system nobody wants to fix. But as whispers turn to threats and secrets start to unravel, Jessica realizes that this death wasn't just tragic - it was convenient for someone. And when the truth finally comes out, it won't just clear her name... It might burn the whole town down.

    I am Callaia Sosa - a wanted woman, an unwanted daughter, beloved granddchild to one of the Syndicate's most decorated spies, 'heathen' heiress, and Commander of a secret organization of vigilante agents. I've got a bad habit of sticking my nose where others don't want it sniffing and a hellacious drive to protect my team of agents at any personal cost. As spontaneous as my life is, a few things have always been predictable - my handpicked team would be at my side in the thick of things and Paw would be there to welcome me home like nothing I went through had happened at all. That's all changing. Paw is sick - dying - and I don't have the luxury of staying by his side to the end. Too many people depend on me. On top of that, he's gotten it in his head I need to make friends with the enemy, a Syndicate Faction of fourteen government lackeys that work for the United Nations - the same assholes determined to bring us to ruin. Unable to turn my dying grandfather's request down, now the fourteen of them, along with my own seven agents, are joining me on what is probably the most dangerous mission I've yet to agree to. The stakes are high, and we're practically flying blind. I've never taken on something of this scale before, and despite the brave face I show the others, I can't help but feel like I'm in over my head. Half of the Faction are royal assholes and the other half seem more preoccupied with flirting. Blackbourne is by far proving to be the biggest hindrance, and our inability to get along leads to a disastrous outcome... Spread apart across a foreign land, one by one we are taken down until all that's left to fight back are myself, a trigger happy Russian, his geek boyfriend, and a flirtatious pretty boy with different colored eyes. It's up to us to save the others. It's up to us to get everyone out alive. Thing is, the odds are stacked against us, and the only way in is by becoming just like the enemy. Time to pull off the perfect crime.

    In the summer of 1928, the Overlook Hotel stands alone in the Colorado mountains-remote, immaculate, and deliberately unreachable. Open only a few months each year, the hotel has already earned a reputation among a certain class of guest: those wealthy enough, powerful enough, or famous enough to disappear for a while. As Independence Day approaches, a carefully curated group arrives for a private week-long celebration. Hollywood royalty fleeing the glare of studio scrutiny. Political figures eager to speak freely without consequence. Financiers, fixers, and discreet intermediaries whose fortunes depend on what is not recorded. They come by invitation, following rumors rather than advertisements-rumors of perfect discretion, unspoken indulgence, and a place where rules quietly dissolve. The Overlook promises what no city can in 1928: privacy. Prohibition does not apply here. Gambling exists behind closed doors. Affairs begin without witnesses. Deals are made without paper. And beneath the glamour of tuxedos, flapper dresses, champagne, and fireworks, something older and less easily named seems to watch from the long corridors and high timbered ceilings. Over the course of several days leading up to the Fourth of July, the guests indulge, negotiate, betray, and unravel-some discovering that the isolation they sought has sharpened their desires, while others find the mountain air brings buried impulses to the surface. The hotel does not judge. It does not intervene. It merely remembers. July 4th at the Overlook is a story about power, secrecy, temptation, and the thin veneer of civility that separates celebration from collapse. It explores how places-like people-can develop reputations, and how the promise of absolute freedom can be more dangerous than any explicit threat.

    The Last Zamindar A Family Saga of Power, Legacy, and Betrayal In the heart of Mithila, Bihar, stands the Simaria Rajbari-an ancient palace steeped in power, pride, and secrets. For generations, the Singh family ruled as zamindars, wielding influence that stretched beyond their lands. But by the 1970s, the feudal era is dying, and with it, the family's unquestioned dominance. When Veerendra Pratap Singh, the heir to this legacy, chooses the Indian Administrative Service (IAS) over his ancestral throne, he is branded a black sheep by his father, Tej Pratap Singh-the last true zamindar in spirit. But Veerendra sees what his ancestors refuse to: power no longer lies in land, but in the corridors of bureaucracy. As Veerendra rises through the system with his unbreakable ideals, he collides with corrupt politicians, caste-based power struggles, and a shadowy network that won't let old power die easily. From burning villages to secret gold reserves, from Mithila's fading aristocracy to Delhi's ruthless politics, he fights to prove that honor doesn't lie in tradition, but in conviction. But history is a cycle-and the Singh family's future will be shaped by two more black sheep: Aditya Singh, who rejects government service for the world of business. Aryan Singh, who embraces the grey world of power with no moral lines. As the family fractures and evolves, one question remains: Will the Singh dynasty adapt and survive, or will it become just another forgotten chapter in India's modern history?
