Shadows of Closure by lovelyst4r

When world-renowned detective Elena Graves is summoned back to her sleepy hometown, she's reluctant but intrigued. The local sheriff, Ethan Reid-a former classmate who once mocked her obsession with solving mysteries-has reached out with a chilling case no one else can crack: a serial killer targeting victims with unsettling precision. As Elena and Ethan work together, they uncover a harrowing truth-the killer's ultimate target might be Elena herself. Struggling to stay ahead of the murderer, Ethan takes it upon himself to protect her, a decision driven not just by duty but by guilt for dragging her into the danger. The closer they get to the truth, the more old wounds resurface. Ethan reveals that he pursued law enforcement inspired by Elena's passion and as a way to reconnect with her. But instead of the closure he sought, their partnership reignites feelings he thought he'd buried long ago. In a race against time, Elena must unravel the killer's twisted motives while navigating the tension between her and Ethan. As the mystery deepens, so does their connection, leaving them both to wonder if they can survive the deadly game-or if their rekindled bond will shatter under the weight of the secrets they uncover.

TheWildBunch by JoeyJackswood

What begins as an ordinary day quickly spirals into something extraordinary for Mason. When his school is reportedly flooded beyond repair, he's forced to transfer to Short Meadow High - a new environment, new faces, and, as it turns out, new adventures. But Mason's thirst for excitement never stays quiet for long. After a few strange coincidences and overheard conversations, he discovers that the flood might not have been an accident at all. Digging deeper, he uncovers that his old school was shut down for a reason far darker than anyone let on. The truth surfaces when news breaks that the notorious scientist Dr. Jeremy Langhammer-a brilliant but deranged criminal mastermind-has escaped from a nearby prison. Soon Mason learns that Langhammer and his network of henchmen are using the abandoned school as their secret hideout. With his parents, Mark and Michelle, conveniently out of town, Mason feels an unshakable pull to uncover the truth himself. Against all odds, he and his loyal friends embark on an investigation filled with danger, deception, and a trail of toxic experiments that could threaten the entire town. Between unraveling mysteries and keeping up with school life, Mason and his friends still find time to chase their passions-trying out for sports, exploring the campus, and unexpectedly earning spots on the team. But as two months pass and his old school finally reopens, Mason faces a heart-wrenching choice: stay with his new friends at Short Meadow or return to the past he's just escaped. And with whispers of lingering danger, the real question becomes-will his curiosity lead to discovery or disaster?
