When 19-year-old Charlie Devland is wheeled off to the hospital after being stabbed at an ex-classmate's house party, his childhood best friend and college boyfriend Salem P. Witchunt's world comes crashing down around him. 
Meanwhile, when self-proclaimed "Detective Extraordinaire" Cynthia Nolan finds out about the case, she feels as if her life has just begun.
As the two ponder the case, learn more about the suspects, and hunt for answers, they both find that not everything is as clear as anticipated, and not everyone is what they seem.

Despite the fact that I wrote this for an assignment, this is my first somewhat completed book! While it was pretty rushed and, as a result, a very rough template of what I'd like it to be someday, my friends wanted to read it and I didn't want to make them wait an eternity for me to go out and publish it as an actual book (or, possibly, the first arc of a webcomic?).
So, here it is! The first draft of Trouble at the Townhouse on Terremont Way!

Constructive criticism is always  welcome, as I'm always trying to improve my work! (Just keep in mind that "your story sucks" isn't constructive criticism.)

(Also, apparently Wattpad shares these stories with more readers if I add a bunch of tags, so please tell me if I should add/remove any of them!)

Cover art by me (somewhat, the background image is from Google; I just cropped it and added text); I originally drew the cover, and I only changed it because I didn't feel like the old one fit the vibe of the rest of the site. Once I learn how to do digital art and I don't have to take pictures of my covers in dimly lit rooms, I'll probably make a fully original cover again.

Astren City, and all surrounding area, have the highest crime rate in the northern part of the country. Dozens of crime families constantly trying to take the throne, as well as corruption lurking around every corner, do not aid in that fact at all.

He's well respected, and amazing at his job. That said, greatness is expected of Salem as well. Of course that isn't a problem, Salem will always be loyal to the law. He was raised by it, and upholding it is his future career aspiration. He thinks he has his life figured out. The fact that his ex-boyfriend comes from a notorious crime family, and has been arrested several times by Jack's own department, doesn't matter.

|CROSSROADS x LEAP YEAR | Eighteen-year-old April Lewis flees her troubled home, desperate to escape her emotionally distant, controlling mom, and seek out her dad. Little does she know a chance encounter with her classmate will take her on a cross-country ride: a journey that will change April's life forever. A venture that will lead her down a path of self-discovery and unexpected love. *** When eighteen-year-old April Lewis' mom walks around like a zombie, evades all attempts to talk and controls her every move, April decides she's had enough. She leaves home one warm summer evening with nothing but a yellow backpack filled with her coveted dad's letters he's been sending her for the past months, and some bare necessities. She's determined to seek him out and go live with him down on the West Coast, where he has a temporary job. The last thing April expects is almost being hit by a car. The owner of the vehicle? Her classmate, Dave Rivera, a troubled boy whom she almost never talked to before, and who can't be more different than her. After making sure April is just a little banged-up, Dave strikes a deal with her: he'll help her get to the West Coast free of charge, as long as she doesn't report him to the cops. The two embark upon a road trip from NY to LA, navigating through stunning landscapes and meeting a colorful cast of characters. While sharing life stories and exchanging experiences, armed with the wisdom from her Dad's letters, April and Dave discover that they are a lot more alike than they originally thought. The journey slowly becomes more important than the destination, and their path takes an unexpected turn when a shocking secret comes to light. © 2024 EvelynHail Exclusively on Wattpad Based on prompt 4!

[EDIT] THE STORY IS UNDERGOING SOME REVISIONS SO THAT IT WON'T BE CRINGEY. I wrote this three years ago, so cut me some slack people. [EDIT 2] THE STORY HAS BEEN COMPLETELY REVISED. I edited a lot. Entire chapters are changed, the dilemma, the songs, the interactions, and even the deaths have all been made, in my mind, better. I really wanted to make this a thriller, but I also wanted mature elements in here, and I definitely didn't want you guys to read anything cringey. So, this is the final director's cut of my novel. I sincerely hope you enjoy and appreciate my revisions. Thanks so much. [EDIT 3] Okay I'm still not satisfied I need to keep updating the parts so sorry everyone lmao The inhabitants of Mazeboro, CA have never seen too much trouble, especially not a string of murders that begin to happen all over town. Newton and his friends are shocked and horrified as two of their friends are among the first to be murdered. And in the midst of this disorder, newcomer Thomas Greene brings a breath of fresh air to the students at Mazeboro High. He plays lacrosse, has a kind disposition, and is quite attractive. He catches Newt's attention, and the two form a strong friendship, despite the murders hitting closer and closer to home. Newt and Thomas, along with their friends, must band together and act as one. But, as less and less people remain, fingers are pointed and distrust ensues. Paranoia settles in. Newt must determine who is guilty and who is not, before every single person is dead. A classic Murder Mystery tale, with romance, drama, and plot twists.
