The DRACULA Dossier by BellOfSilence

** A young woman sees a walking dead in the open streets of Whitby. A train full of corpses crashes into Kings Cross. In an Asylum, a gruesome nightmare becomes horrible reality. All this should have been a warning to Kyle and his partner Benjamin of the Order of Seekers. ** "Mundus vult decipi, ergo decipiatur. The world wants to be deceived; let it be deceived!" - Motto of the Order of Seekers - London 1899. Where spirit calling has become as normal as cricket and tennis, the lines between fantasy and reality blur. In fine society, occultism and an affiliation with 'secret' lodges are part of the latest fashion. A particularly exclusive group of this kind is the Order of Seekers, dedicated to researching, keeping secrets, and covering up supernatural events. The Magician Kyle Crowford and the Military Doctor Dr. Benjamin Archer belong to that lodge. Their latest order: a girl is said to have seen a revenant in Whitby in broad daylight. Was it just the mirage of a twisted mind or horrible facts? A race against time begins for the seekers because their tracks always lead them to a clue: vampires. If everything turns out to be true and the dead walk the earth, the living will fill the graves by the hundreds. What begins for the two men with a seemingly harmless order develops into a landslide of events, the extent of which soon terrorizes the whole of London. **** Cover by Thinkerling

A Very Messy Business In Belgravia by JudeBelinda

*** OPEN NOVELLA CONTEST 2021 - HONORABLE MENTION *** The year is 1907, and Amalthea Huntley, Countess of Claremont, is bored. Recently widowed at a young age, she finds very little to entertain her in Edwardian London, until an unusual turn of events at a society party plants the seed of an idea. Lady detective? Why not? It would only be a hobby after all. Lending her considerable powers of observation to some of her closer acquaintances to help resolve their more sensitive issues. After all, what could be so difficult? An instance of minor household theft here, a brief indiscretion there. And it would serve to pass the time. Yes, she resolved. With some careful thought, she was sure she could pull it off, and it would certainly liven things up. Little did Amalthea know that she had bitten off far more than she could chew, when she suddenly finds herself embroiled in a dangerous murder investigation, her only ally being an attractive but rather disagreeable private investigator with a secretive past and a strong dislike for opinionated women. Still, if she wasn't careful, she could find that the biggest threat to her latest diversion was not the case at all, but rather an unexpected something, or someone, a little closer to home. This story is dedicated to Dickie, who acted as my consultant in all things historical. Highest Rankings: #1 historicalmystery (March 2021) #1 crimeromance (March 2021)
