Jonathan Crosby studied for years to become a ground-breaking investigative journalist, only to put his career on hold and move back home to the sleepy Willow Mills to care for his sick father. Now stuck in a monotonous cycle of tedious local journalism, Jonathan is called out to interview a tarot card reader for his latest article. But, when the mysterious old woman predicts disaster in his future, a disaster that rings true, Jonathan must uncover whether it was luck, the power of tarot, or whether the old woman is actually behind the horror.
A fortune carved by fate... or murder by human design?

Love is a place (gxg)
Samantha had a Puzzle to solve. Not a Problem. She wasn't sure if it merited that classification yet. A Problem was something that caused her difficulty in her life. A Problem would require Action and Change. A Puzzle was something new that she didn't yet understand, but she needed to understand in order to decide whether a) there was a Problem or b) no Action was needed. It had taken her some time to become aware that this Puzzle was there in her life. This was unusual: normally new things were jarring, causing a stench in her hearing and a folding in her chest. This Puzzle had crept up on her. That in itself was puzzling. ------------------------ Samantha is different. The world is often a loud, confusing and contradiction place for her. But ever since Year 7, Sarah has been there to help guide her through. Now they are in their second year at Bristol University together and Sarah's behaviour towards her has started to change. This is puzzling to Samantha. However, the greatest Puzzle of all is not whether Sarah has changed: it's whether Samantha has. "This is possibly, probably, the most affecting story I have ever read on this site. I bit hard on the hook in part one, and then you just methodically, deliciously, reeled me in with part two. Literally two hours ago I was oblivious to what was about to happen to me. And now I'm in the "after Samantha and Sarah" part of my existence." - reader Galadriel_Fan "This was a wonderful story from start to finish. I echo the comments of another when I agree that this was one of the most original stories I have read. This was a love story but like no other. You did an amazing job of taking me into the head of a neurodivergent woman. I feel like I understand a person like this so much better, while recognizing that this is one person's journey and will be different for others. You also gave a perfect insight into what it means to love someone like this. " - author RipleyAbgeschlossene Geschichte
The Fool Card
The Fool Card is the first in a series of mysteries linked to the tarot deck. In this first book, Xana Bard has chosen a quiet life--drinking tea, talking to her pets, reading, and conferring with the Pacific Ocean beyond her picture window. She calls the ocean Doctor P., and it's cheaper than her therapist and may be a little more helpful. She's happy enough, until the night Thorne Ardall, shot while chasing his boss's killer, crashes into her house. Using her tarot-trained intuition rather than her better judgment, Xana patches Thorne up and they agree to track down the murderer as a team. She's sure her mother will have a cow. Her friends will have a cow. Her shrink will have a cow. They can start a dairy farm for all she cares.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
Crimson Silence: "Order Of The Unseen"
Thornburghshire had always been a city of quiet rot-its corners dressed in order, but its bones brittle with secrets. After their last case nearly tore the city's justice system apart, Detective Yuki and newly promoted Detective Jelly are back on the streets, chasing something colder than a corpse and slicker than truth: a kidnapping. Eliza Whitmore, daughter of the mayor, vanishes without a trace one damp morning. What starts as a high-profile missing persons case soon coils into something far uglier-evidence pointing to a buried network pulling the strings behind the city's decay. A name surfaces like a whispered curse: The Order of the Unseen. As the detectives wade deeper into corruption and ritual, the mayor unveils a key figure-Colonel David Kane, his trusted advisor and enforcer. But Yuki knows that name. She remembers the man. He helped raise her brother Nisbet before his untimely death, and now stands as a ghost from a past she thought she'd buried. What follows is a descent into loyalty twisted by manipulation, regret sharpened into rage, and a partnership that begins to fray under the weight of truth. For Yuki and Jelly, the line between justice and revenge has never been thinner-and this time, crossing it might cost them everything.Abgeschlossene Geschichte

When Naomi Bennett returns from a year abroad, she's ready to start fresh - new course, new friends, new version of herself. Psychology was never part of the plan, but it's hers now... even if her parents still wish she'd studied law instead. Then comes Ms Chambers. Beautiful. Unreadable. Dangerous in ways Naomi can't quite put into words. A woman who owns every room she walks into - including the lecture hall. Naomi doesn't like her. She's too confident. Too composed. Too... something. But for someone she supposedly can't stand, Ms Chambers is increasingly hard to ignore. The tension is quiet, precise - threaded through loaded glances and careful silences. It's just in Naomi's head. Isn't it? As boundaries blur and obsession simmers beneath the surface, Naomi begins to question everything - what she wants, what she knows, and who she really is beneath the version of herself she's always performed.

The Bright Room | 18+
If saving your life caused you more suffering than dying ever could, would you thank the man who did it, or would you kill him? Samantha is brilliant, driven, and running on empty. A visit to her old best friend was supposed to be a reset. Instead, one night tears her life apart and leaves her one breath from death. The man who saves her has his own methods, a cure much worse than the disease. Cleansed with light, stripped of everything, Sam loses herself layer by agonizing layer, and wakes up in the Bright Room as a mystery: to her captor, and to herself. The only thing she's sure she's not is a victim. But reclaiming her life means dealing with a captor whose ruthlessness is matched only by how broken he is; a debt to him she can't balance against the trauma he caused; and a thing waking inside her that may be more dangerous than the infection itself. What develops between them is Beauty and the Beast, followed to its natural conclusion: two beasts, containing each other.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
