grey lilith mom whodunit working

Detective Lilith Grey investigates a murder at the Tatts & Tarts "Body Shop", a brothel and tattoo parlor. Can she solve the mystery of who killed Honeybunny? Can she survive her new home life? 


I'm trying my hand at an old-fashioned murder mystery. 
I wanted to write a female MC that is strong without being bitchy, a mother that is fully capable of doing her job, someone who is human and flawed, but still functional.

I See You by January616

Hey there folks, I'm Cody Phillips, welcome to New Orleans. N'awlins is known for many wonderful things, our coffee, music and the ability to throw a damn fine party. We're also known as the city most people believe may be one of the most haunted places in the world. Well, let me tell you this, we have more than our fair share. I know because I can see them. But, listen, don't spread that around. Yeah? It's been a closely guarded family secret my whole life. Not even my best friend knows this about me. See, I use my 'gift' in my work as a homicide detective with NOLA's finest boys in blue. Now, I understand why you might call it cheating, and that's fine. But I always catch the bad guy with the victim telling me everything I need to know and give the family involved closer. So it evens out as far as I can tell. Now just as my life is moving slower than a gator with a full belly, the worst happens. I get the call about a homicide that's hit too close to home. It leaves the girl of my dreams coming home to face tragedy. The moment I see her I find myself reminded of the one secret no one ever knew. Ever since I was eight years old I have felt many different things for Emma O'Neal, and those feelings haven't disappeared with time. Problem is now that she's come home; I find myself fighting not only an unknown assailant out for blood, my partner's misguided beliefs but my own need for the enticing beauty I'm duty sworn to protect. Damn, I just hope I'm able to fight the feelings I have for this woman, and stay focused on the case. Otherwise, I might end up losing something far more precious to me than the honor I've worked so hard for: Emma's life.

CURSED The Choice by FeatherxClaw37

As if the thought of getting caught by Tate didn't scare her enough, what surely scared her was the thick silence in the air. When had the woods become so empty all of a sudden? She felt the hair on the back of her neck rise and her arms explode with goosebumps. She knew it was okay for normal people to be scared sometimes but when a persons a hunter, it wasn't okay to be terrified, even if they did risk their lives hunting menacing creatures everyday. Being terrified while going on a hunt was no big deal as long as everyone was with their group. . . But Lilith wasn't with her group, she was all alone and she had no absolute clue where she was. She wasn't just terrified. . . She was petrified. As if to make matters worse, a howl split the night making her tense and look around. The werewolf was close. Too close. ---------- For years, a group of hunters, whose duty it is to wipe out the population of werewolves and vampires, have been thriving under the attacks of the supernatural. Lilith is finally of age to become a full huntress just like her father and mother, but things go terribly wrong when she is attacked and bitten by a werewolf on her first hunt. Now she is the thing she had been destined to hunt...destined to kill. Lilith is being torn between a perilous choice and she doesn't have much time if she wants to reverse the curse. As emotions begin to overwhelm her, Lilith must decide; Will she find a cure in time or shoot herself with a silver bullet to end the suffering once and for all? ------------------------- NOTE: THIS IS MY FIRST BOOK ON WATTPAD SO PLEASE, NO HATE COMMENTS. IF YOU DON'T LIKE MY WRITING OR DON'T ENJOY THE BOOK, DON'T READ IT! Thank you COVER MADE BY THE AMAZING @deathly_addiction_

(Loona x Y/N male reader) and the dark secret past of investigate by AutisticHellhound76

Y/N work at the I.M.P for 3 years. Everything was great but Y/N stopped showing up long time and came back. But the news talk about murder is on the loose. Loona is very suspicious about Y/N because he act it weird. What Y/N didn't know she have been trained to become a detective and she will investigate what is your suspicion act. I do not own the photo and the character just a disclaimer. And another thing I am terrible at storytelling so please forgive me because it's my first time writing this book. [Spoiler alert If you don't want to get Spoiler just skip it] So I decided to make a story of the male reader killer and Loona is the detective to find out. Will it turn out to be a real killer or it's too late find out for yourself.

Ripper - Hell Rider's MC #1 - by BeWhoYouAre--

This story has plot holes and grammar mistakes, I get it. This book isn't edited at all and I plan to once the series is finished. If you don't want to read it than don't read it but don't comment and bash me for mistakes when I have warned readers many times that I don't edit. Thank you. ____ I shivered as I pulled my coat tighter around me. I had been walking for days, and sadly it was mid winter. The chill felt like it would never go away, and no matter how many shops I went into to warm up, I always had to trudge through the snow once more. I had no clue as to where I was going, but I was praying that I would find someone safe and warm before I was either found by the one person I was trying to escape, or before I froze to death on the side of the street. ~ Lilith, or Lilly, is running from her mother after she tried selling Lilly's body to some men. Her mother had been abusing her for years and once the night had fallen after being beaten severely, Lilith took action. She grabbed all of her money and headed East from Colorado in hopes of living a better life ~ Disclaimer: There will be swearing, violence, and more so if that is something you are uncomfortable with then I suggest you do not read this story. NOT A FUCKING AGEGAP STORY. IF YOU READ PAST THE FIRST CHAPTER YOU WILL FIND THAT OUT. THANK YOU. * I am horrible at descriptions so please do not judge the book based off of my descriptions. *
