The Hidden Game
When Amelia Swanson was four, her parents were murdered. The killer was never caught. Twelve years later, something opens a door to her past. It doesn't offer Amelia any answers - only more questions. Dangerous questions. ...The kind people have died for. Now Amelia and her best friend Marv are being hunted. By a system built to suppress the past. By people who have killed to keep secrets buried. And by something dark that stalks her dreams-something that knows her name. As the net tightens around them, Amelia realises they aren't the only ones searching. Everyone is circling the same hidden conspiracy. Politicians. Journalists. Scientists. Secret societies. Resistance cells. Assassins. Amelia begins to understand the truth she was never meant to find: her parents weren't random victims. They were players in a hidden game. And she just stepped onto the board. ------ What to expect from The Hidden game: - A conspiracy thriller with underlying psychological horror elements. - A slow-burn investigation that constantly escalates into real danger and a large conspiracy. - A surveillance-state dystopia and critique of both systemic and algorithmic power. - Layered mysteries where every answer creates new questions. - The story has a strong focus on found family and fiercely loyal friendships. Content warning: parental death (past/flashback), trauma and PTSD, nightmares, occasional violence and death (no gore), and pervasive surveillance themes. ------ Release schedule: I'm aiming to release a new chapters every 10-14 days with short breaks (2-4 weeks) between seasons. Current status: Book 1, Season 1 complete (20 Transmissions, ~60k words). Season 2 is underway and the hunt is active. Planned scope: a trilogy of books split across 9 seasons (approximately 750k words).
Anatomy of Fragility
WHAT IF YOUR NIGHTMARES AREN'T YOUR OWN? The world is divided. Below is the Rim, filthy slums where every day is a struggle for survival. Above is the Aureole, a sterile paradise where everyone has a price. Mirey is a mechanic from the Rim. She believes in nuts and schematics, but her mind is fracturing. At night, she falls into a chilling void, where thousands of voices whisper and scream. She thinks she's going insane. Noah is a detached Observer from the Aureole. His career is in ruins, and he'll do anything to reclaim his power. He finds a loophole: a minor system glitch at a checkpoint, linked to a girl from the Rim. He sees her only as a stepping stone. But when he descends into the slums, he realizes her "glitch" isn't a technical error. And her nightmares are the key to the secret upholding their entire ideal world. The truth she hears could destroy everything. The lie he tells is the only thing that can save them.
House of Bellini
Every generation bears the sins of the last. When Anastasia is forced into a marriage she never chose, she becomes bound to Killian-a man feared for his silence as much as his violence.

Killian has waited years to dismantle the family that destroyed his own, and through Anastasia, he finally holds the thread that can unravel them all. But fate has a cruel sense of irony. The woman meant to be collateral begins to matter. And the deeper the bond between them grows, the more impossible his revenge becomes. Because some threads, once pulled too tight, cannot be cut without blood.
