crime detective mystery

Three crimson envelopes emerge on criminology lecturer Mr Hilton's doorstep before his class. Their message? To solve a murder without knowing the identity of either the victim or the culprit using only three clues: an image of a pink moon, a blank white slip of paper, and a piece of cork. Alongside some of his fellow staff members, he must solve an increasingly complicating case which appears to target him. Every twenty four hours that pass where the mystery remains unsolved, somebody else will die. As the body count rises, Mr Hilton feels blood on his hands. How many days will it take to solve the mystery that the riddles provide?All Rights Reserved

The Lost Libraries Archive (The Erik Midgard Case Files Volume 2) by kdnorwich1

Who would want to kill a time-travelling librarian? Time-travelling police detective Erik Midgard thought he had changed his fate. But now he is burdened with new knowledge that suggests the future is more flexible than he thought. He might not have escaped his predicted destiny after all. To make things worse, he has another murder to solve. At the solar system's greatest university on the moon, a group of historians and their students are using time travel to recover the great lost libraries of ancient civilisations. Travelling back to times before these libraries were destroyed, they are secretly recording the contents of all the books and bringing the data safely back to the present. They have saved the entire collections of the libraries of Alexandria, Ctesiphon, Nalanda, the Serapeum, the House of Wisdom in Baghdad and the Mayan libraries of the Yucatan and have many more still to rescue. They have already learnt countless new facts about the civilisations that created these libraries and the project has so far been an unqualified success. But when the professor who founded the project is found dead, it very quickly becomes clear to Erik and his partner Mirabi that something else is going on. Newly promoted after their success at the Time Traveller's Ball, this should be a straightforward murder investigation. But the project's staff, students and security guards are all hiding more secrets than the libraries they have rescued contain, and at least one of them is prepared to kill to protect them. But as they search for answers, Erik starts to suspect that one of the secrets might just be a way to solve the unsolvable. And if it is, could it also be a way for him to save himself?

White As A Lie by KatieCat2

"You're telling me you didn't do it?" she asked. "Yes. I don't know what happened. I was asleep when it...when she..." Crystal's face was the prime example of someone who wasn't believing what they were being told. "Suicide, you're suggesting?" I didn't answer. "Well, Mr. McCain, according to your test results, you're clear," she leaned closer. "But between you and me, I don't believe the tests." Nolan McCain is a normal high school counselor, when suddenly his world is turned upside down when he's accused of murdering his wife. These days, your blood turns darker with each crime you commit, and when they test Nolan's, it's white as snow. Detective Crystal Parkes is on the case as soon as she hears this. "You saw the test results. My blood is white as snow, the chief said it himself." I said. "White as snow," Crystal squints at me. "Or white as a lie?" **Brief strong language

These deaths are accompanied by creepy photos of the deceased just before they were killed, along with the color red...a morbid symbol from her stalker. She also receives a letter from that same man convinced that he was made for Amy. (An expert from that letter.) "-Red suits you I think, I remember being mesmerized by your crimson blood as it leaked down your thigh. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen.. You are the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. Until next time, the man made for Amy Moore."

"The universe is rarely lazy enough to deliver a coincidence, especially one in plain sight. When something is so eager to be spotted then it would hardly be polite to ignore it" Something ghastly is occurring in the shadows of London. Three people have died and the cause of their death is unrecognizable, the only link found is a series of threatening letters sent directly to each of the diseased. With Mycroft stumped and the British Government in peril it's up to the consulting detective and his blogger to solve the case before time runs out. With the murderers motives and methods opaque Sherlock finds himself rapped up in a mystery that is not only perplexing but emotional in a way that he could never have imagined. Will the team solve their most personal case to date? Or will they too fall victim to the illustrious Nightshot Experiment? THE GAME IS ON! (Contains mild Adlock) DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ANY CHARACTERS EXCEPT FOR MY OWN. SHERLOCK IS COPYRIGHT OF THE BBC AND ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE. I'm always looking for feedback so if you see any mistakes like typos, grammar, spelling ect then please let me know! If you have any advice for how I could improve the story or any plot holes then I would love you to tell me :) Thank you :)
