Tristan Young is, by all logical conclusions, a failure. His dream career of private investigation has left him with nothing but debt and an empty office. So when a mysterious phone call makes him a grand promise of fame and success, the decision to accept is simple. There is only one price for his ambition: one night in the local manor, and one dinner with five strangers. Easy enough. Until, sometime in the dark, the price turns bloody. With one of the party's attendees now dead and no other suspects but the remaining five, they are all thrust deep into a murder case riddled with secrets. For Tristan, it should be his fantasy come true; he finally has a puzzle to solve and a chance to put his skills to use. But the games in his head never placed himself as a puzzle piece. The game becomes a race. He has to clear his name and win what he was promised before it's too late. -♧- Written for the Open Novella Contest 2023, using prompt 49. -- ONC Shortlister -- [cover art by the amazing @-aceospades-]

Trouble School by 16prof

Book Two of the Unofficial Case Files { { o } } Ten years ago, Detective Rodney Klocke had his first encounter with the supernatural. The case cost him his partner and closest friend, Doug Norgaard. A man who knew far more than he ever could've shared. Klocke had managed to forget this warp in reality, for the most part. Surely he'd only imagined all that? Ghosts? They don't exist. Except they do. It used to be his only officially unsolved case. Though he knew who the killer had been. While he's successfully solved every case placed on his desk since, his luck with partners hasn't improved. Save for Jennifer Haiden, who survived not only being the captive of a psychopathic killer, but has so far managed to survive being his partner. When Klocke finds an invitation to a ten-year highschool reunion on his desk (one with a personal letter to him written on the back), he's forced to revisit that case from all those years ago. He's forced to remember why he can't let anyone get too close. Because he might be more than jinxed. He might be cursed. { { o } } COMPLETELY EDITED
