The first person on the scene is Detective Chief Inspector Morgan Chester, who receives a disturbing phone call and has no choice but to investigate as one victim works in the local brothel belonging to her father.

After almost ten years serving in the Serious Crime Unit and investigating horrific crimes, nothing can prepare her for what she is about to witness.

On the same night, the vibrant town of Herford is thrown into turmoil. On the busy high street, a distressed young woman emerges covered in blood and screaming for her baby.

After being left with no leads and her principal witness dead, DCI Morgan Chester faces a tough decision as she marches through the gates of HMP Belmarsh.

In a post-apocalyptic world where human civilization has been renewed and altered, a private detective Derek Welsh, accepted a missing girl case from his friend, he didn't expect to be caught up in a tangled and deadly web of an organized crime group, The Underground, which has infiltrated the city and all its layers, including the law enforcement. By then, corpses of young girls started appearing all over the city. They were brutally raped, tortured and murdered. Derek, his partner Rita, must join forces with the police, including Derek's lover Captain Patricia Gisborne and an ex-junkie, Chester, who was involved in transporting one o the missing girls. All of them must face mortal peril because The Underground will stop at nothing to keep their claws in. New Chapters uploaded every week! I have started this book about two years ago. I have always wanted to write a book that I want to read and I love crime stories with a touch of darkness. The characters that I created are not perfect. They all have flaws, just like all of us and I love to play with those flaws. I created them by heart and my love to them is equal. The word I created in this story sets in a distant future, where humans were survivors of a gargantuan apocalyptic disaster. It changes the way of living but in some aspects, but humanity stays the same. The cycle repeats itself and you can always find similarities. I own all the copyrights of these stories and I will take matter seriously to plagiarism. I hope that you enjoy my stories and can be entertained by them. Happy Reading ! Warmest Regards, Naila Fauzia
