Dolores Goodridges expected a regular dinner party. Instead, her husband has disappeared and dead bodies keep showing up (as well as a drug dealer expecting $8,000 in cash). Who is the murderer? And who will make it out alive? The suspects are:

VLADIMIR, the elderly father who's got a secret up his sleeve.

BRANDON, the childish lawyer who may not be who he seems.

LUCILLE, a woman who knows what she wants- revenge on Dolores.

FELIX, a man whose sexuality is as confusing as his wardrobe choices.

ALTON, the butler like every other butler in entertainment- suspicious.

WALTER, the wannabe actor willing to do anything it takes to make it big.

AND MANY MORE...

The Poisoner's Game by BeatrixWritesProse

As the London Season of 1877 opens, Lady Margaret Savoy wants nothing more than to be invisible and devour "Penny Dreadfuls" to avoid the cruelty of her aunt and cousin. When she finds a letter from her grandfather warning her about a man called the Poisoner, a powerful crime boss who killed her parents, her wallflower days come to an abrupt end as she falls into a deadly investigation. Literally. Out a window, in fact, and right into the path of Lord Alexander Rocque, a young detective. Alexander offers his assistance-with the Poisoner, and the window-and together they set out to discover the Poisoner's plans. But Lord Alexander has plans of his own. Recently ordered home from the Royal Navy to assist his father, a spymaster for the Crown, with the Poisoner case, Alexander is determined to earn his father's respect by catching the criminal through any means necessary. The perfect tool falls into his lap in the form of Lady Margaret, the Poisoner's next target, but using Margaret to draw out the crime boss has Alexander examining his moral compass. As Margaret learns about her heritage and Alexander uncovers his father's affiliation with the East Indian Company, they discover that their families are not so innocent after all. To stay alive in the Poisoner's game, they must find the key to the dying Opium trade-a key Margaret may, in fact, possess herself. If they don't find it, the Poisoner will escape yet again, but even worse, Margaret will become the next victim.

SUSPECT: A Murder Mystery by AngelsBookshelf

A robbery gone wrong? The murder of a jewelry store owner is committed under cover of darkness. Two of his assailants, residents of the Sanctuary, a nearby homeless shelter, are found laying dead beside him. And on a crisp November day, a deaf, intellectually disabled young woman who saw the killer's face is convinced that she is being stalked by a murderer. As the police investigate, the search for Jerry, a third accomplice on the run, turns up with no leads. But Mary Ann Hernandez, the director of the Sanctuary, accuses Alphonso's son, Tommy, of having ties to the two men found murdered near his father, and when Tommy doesn't disclose all he knows about his father's death and then lies about his alibi, he becomes a prime suspect. The question is: Who's the culprit?

Bad Blood by MattiasL

A bloody crime scene. A missing collection of rare coins worth over $20 million. And the DNA evidence points to a former Army Ranger, who has been dead for over four years... These are the clues Detective Richard Trotter is stuck with after the disappearance of Woodrow Reed, a retired wealthy investor, and his wife Cynthia, from their mansion. The forensic scientists conclude that most of the blood in the house came from Cynthia. When Woodrow is found alive in a remote area in the mountains, he confirms that his wife was killed in the house by masked assailants, who then kidnapped him and stole the coin collection. As the police is trying to find the remote mountain location where Woodrow was held captive, Trotter is looking into the background of the Army Ranger whose DNA was found at the crime scene. Meanwhile, the FBI monitors international black markets for signs that the stolen coins are being offered for sale. It turns out a few of them were ... several months before they were taken. --------- I have been plotting this short story for a while, and decided to write it specifically for the #Wattys2016. Hope you enjoy!
