Ten years ago Nina Jay's big sister Karen went missing, along with seventeen other girls and boys in the sleepy English town of Hamlin. Long thought to be a victim of the still at large serial killer nicknamed The Piper, Nina and her parents have never quite managed to fill the hole that Karen left when she vanished.
As Nina approaches her seventeeth birthday, the age Karen was when she left, strange things start happening. Strange messages taunt the Jay family and the other victim's familes, leading the town to believe The Piper may yet launch another assault on the children of Hamlin and the town goes into lockdown.
But when a mysterious young woman looking remarkably like an adult Karen Jay is found lost and dazed, Nina is faced with a desperate hunt for the truth. Is this Jane Doe her sister? Who is the Piper and what is his end game? And will Nina make it through Hamlin, alive?

The Will To
Will is a slut. At least, according to everyone else she is. With a past that both defines her and won't let her go, Will has had enough of the name-calling and assumptions. She's decided to use it all as fuel to get what she wants: to take down Reid Reynolds. Reid is a "bad boy" (a term that makes Will's eyes cross into oblivion) and he represents everything that Will despises. He is a TA in one of her university classes, making her plan even easier. She has an entire year to follow through with her agenda. No problem. It's all under control. Except it isn't. When women start getting assaulted on campus, everything Will is running from begins to catch up with her. She will inevitably have to face it--and decide if getting revenge on the bad boy will actually get her what she wants. NaNoWriMo2021 Warnings: sexual assault, mentions of rape, and stalking.Complete

WARNING: This has been written by a much younger self in about a month for Camp Nanowrimo, so it is still full of grammar errors and awkward sentences. I haven't gotten around to actually editing it and i probably never will... so ignore the "reviewed and edited" chapters, because they do not really exist. They all have mistakes, so there is really no need for you to warn me about them. I hope you enjoy the story anyway.Complete
