Intro
"It was a dark alley, the air stiff and no noise could be heard, but the silence was broken with the blood curdling scream that came and gone in a second. I stood there staring at the screen as the knife clatters to the ground, just to be picked up by the stranger I've been chasing this whole time staring back at me."
Maddie McMahon is a new detective in Seattle. Her first case is a stabbing serial killer that only attacks late in the night, and each killing the stab number shrinks by one, like a ticking time bomb waiting to go off. She must find the killer. Yet, it could be anyone.

The Shadow Prospect {ONC}
For all obvious reasons to his story, Cato should be dead. By some miracle, he's not. Somehow surviving a brutal attack, he wakes up instead to the insistent beeping of hospital equipment, to be told he's the only suspect for the same murder case he was rescued from, found clutching the bloody weapon in one hand with absolutely no clue of how it got there and no evidence to point elsewhere. And the biggest problem? He has no memory of that night. The murder wiped clean, just as bare as the evidence of the case, making it impossible to know the truth. But as his journey to finding the truth continues he can't ignore the growing nagging in his gut that there's more to this. Something else was there that night. Someone. And, by God, he was going to find out who (or what) was in that alley with him- Even if it kills him. {ONC ROUND 1 AND 2 QUALIFIER!!}Complete
