Trinity Hawthorne is a person of firsts: first female detective on the Little Rock Homicide Division, the first deaf detective in the state, and the first rookie to discover an elusive serial killer has been leaving victims all over the state, unnoticed until now. She'll have to prove herself in this male-dominated world or risk her new found promotion.
Can she piece together the puzzle that will lead her to the killer? Or will she be the laughing stock of the department, who don't believe her theory?
Note from Max:
Sorry that this isn't finished yet. My father was diagnosed with cancer in late August, so my focus has been on getting him well. I will resume writing after the first of the year. Hopefully I can finish by summer. Fingers crossed!

Mark of the Obsession
Detective Celeste Marlowe is no stranger to darkness, but nothing could prepare her for the twisted games of a serial killer determined to make her his greatest audience. In New York City, the murders begin with a single, unsettling detail-a red rose placed next to the body. As the body count rises, the killer's ritual grows more elaborate and chilling. Each crime scene is a carefully orchestrated display, a grotesque masterpiece meant to be admired, understood, and, above all, recognized. The killer is methodical, highly intelligent, and compulsive-his need for recognition drives every brutal act. He isn't just taking lives; he's manipulating the narrative, shaping a story he expects Celeste to decipher. With every murder, he leaves behind symbols tied to his past, each more cryptic and menacing than the last. His obsession with perfection and power pushes him to test Celeste in ways no one has before, drawing her deeper into his twisted game. As Celeste races against the clock to stop him, she begins to see unsettling parallels between his obsession and her own hidden darkness. The media feeds his ego, amplifying his recognition, while Celeste's personal trauma resurfaces, blurring the line between hunter and prey. With each new clue, Celeste finds herself questioning not just the killer's motives but her own psyche. The killer is watching, waiting, and he knows exactly how to push her to the edge. Mark of the Obsession is a psychological thriller that delves into the chilling mind of a sadistic serial killer and the detective determined to stop him. As Celeste confronts the killer's manipulations, she must face the deepest corners of her own soul-and the terrifying truth that the game is never truly over.Concluida

Meg and the other survivors she's befriended think they've found a stable equilibrium, six weeks after the catastrophe began. In an empty town, there's not much to do except innovate new survival methods. Meg's crush is the one to discover that Morse Code, like writing, is a safe means of communication.

The man keeps visiting Maggie over the years. And when Margaret turns sixteen their father gives them a gift that will change their life for the better. Chp. 4 Preview: She was able to see what the paper had on it immediately after taking it from the shelf, and it made her heart immediately drop. Her blood sugar fell, and her face became pale, feeling dizzy. Her heart began racing as she saw me staring at her. The drawing she just found was a realistic depiction of myself smiling at the person who saw it. Unlike myself, who felt joy and inspiration from seeing father draw me this, mother was scared witless. Her legs became jelly, her body was paralyzed. All she could do was stare at the drawing, knowing that no one could have drawn this except an adult. And she knew I did not talk to any adults- or did I? Now she couldn't be too sure. This picture was from someone who knew how I looked, even getting the dimples on my cheeks and small birthmark on the side of my neck. It was someone that had to know me very well.Concluida
