The Industrial Revolution has brought about changes that none would have foreseen, both positive and negative.

In the town of Bridgnorth, the air remains un polluted and the trees thrive with life. The townsfolk wave away any attempts by factory owners to let them build their smoke spewing buildings. The local detective, Neville Carfield embraces the lack of violence and hopes that the town never resorts to aggression as an answer to a problem.

As Halloween draws near, a series of brutal murders begin to worry locals with no end in sight. Neville is forced to give up his peaceful lifestyle as he rushes to find the culprit and remove the fear from the locals hearts.

But as the body count continues to rise, Neville's sanity and willpower are pushed to its limits.

Kill Who You Want by bigimp

What if it came to the starkest of all choices: kill, or else suffer the loss of a loved one? Readers' comments: 'simply the best', 'one of the best books I've read', 'loved it', 'amazing', 'great reading', 'stumped me to the very end' and others Plot: When a pregnant doctor is brutally murdered in her own kitchen, the husband claims to have some weeks earlier received an anonymous and darkly menacing letter. For the small town of Ravensby, it's just the start of a living nightmare - one in which nobody is spared from the murderous cross hairs, and which will drive Detective Inspector Kubič to the edge of his own sanity... Genre: suspense/thriller Status: completed Length: 70,000 words (approx. 275 standard novel pages) Target readership: Though aimed primarily at adults, the novel features several teenage characters and so may also appeal to a younger audience Extract: "Warn you sir, not a pretty sight in there." Kubič took a deep, preparatory breath, his footsteps slow and leaden as he moved towards the kitchen door. Not for the first time over the years, he found himself wishing he'd chosen an entirely different sort of career. Paper-pushing, something out of doors. Anything at all. He'd always been reasonable enough at woodwork back at school, he recalled. Why hadn't he done that, he thought? Become a cabinet maker or some damn thing. A reluctant hand pushed open the door... "Oh dear Christ." The words escaped his mouth forcefully, involuntarily, like blood gushing from an open wound

His Obsession by Petite_Mort_

"Uhm.. Sir? Can I help you?" I mumble while staring at him. He breaks out into a huge grin, the kind of grin you see on little kids when they get their favorite toy.

Before everything goes black. "This is turning into a good night after all.." ------------------------------------------------------- This is a dark horror romance about a young woman named Layla. Trying to escape her past, she flees to another city, hoping for a fresh start. Little does she know, that was her biggest mistake. That is where he sees her for the first time. And he will stop at nothing to make her his. His murderous obsession for her knows no bounds. What will she do when she finds herself trapped in his clutches?

The Ravenswood Reckoning by GeorgiaCurrie

The town of Ravenswood has always had its secrets-whispers of disappearances, strange rituals, and a curse that binds the land in darkness. At the heart of it stands Ravenswood Estate, a decaying monument to a family whose legacy is written in blood. When Elias Ravenswood IV is found murdered in his own home-his body posed in a grotesque ritual, his lips sewn shut with golden thread-Detective Celeste Marlowe is called to unravel the mystery. A seasoned investigator with ghosts of her own, Celeste knows that some cases never truly end. As she steps into the shadowed halls of the Ravenswood Estate, she feels it instantly: this house is not just a crime scene. It's alive. And it's waiting. The deeper she digs, the more the walls seem to close in. The townspeople speak of a family curse, of a reckoning long overdue. The suspects-each with their own secrets-drip with guilt, but something far worse lurks beneath the surface. The clues don't just point to Elias's death; they lead Celeste back to a night long buried in her own past, a night she has no memory of... but one that has never forgotten her. As the bodies start to pile up, Celeste realizes she isn't just hunting a killer-she is part of the story, a thread in a tapestry of death woven long before she was born. Someone has been waiting for her to return. And they won't let her leave. In Ravenswood, the past never dies. It waits.

Water's Edge by NathanTDean

H J Fields is a Bow Street Runner, a private investigator loathed by public and policeman alike. Straddling the thin blue line, he believes that even if the barrel turns all the apples bad, there must be law somewhere. His first case after getting a new office in Askrinstough, a city built on flooded Grimsby, Immingham. He needs money, and fast, and when Mrs. Wharton, wife of Barnaby, the MP for Beverly & Holderness, turns up with stories of her son going missing around the Humber Dam construction site, this seems like easy money for our P.I. But when he arrives in Thorngumbald, he finds more than just a kid lost to the estuary. Saxon cultists, environmental terrorists, and Tory MPs: and there are sure as hell more than one body in those waters. This case is going to take longer than he'd like. At least the pay is worth it. Water's Edge is the first H J Fields mystery, a Brexlit crime story, set in a world after the United Kingdom dissolves into four independent nations. Unionists bomb the border to Scotland. The Conservatives have been in power for 1X years. And Runners like Fields may have quit the force, for all it's corruption, but crimes still need solving, right?
