A murder mystery set against the backdrop of an alternate, medieval Earth:
In a time where men lust for power and laws are merely an inconvenience, Ami is afflicted by the worst sort of misfortune - undeniable beauty. Her cutting wit, honed through years of being on the run, proves to be sharper than her facial features and a weapon she wields expertly against the world.
Mikael harbors grand delusions of being able to solve mysteries that have baffled even the most astute of lawmen. The delusion becomes high fantasy when he actually expects to be paid for his 'services'.
After a chance encounter, Ami finds herself bickering endlessly with Mikael, her defensive facade clashing constantly with his unhealthy levels of self-admiration and conceit, leaving her wondering why she's subjecting herself to this torture.
To make matters worse, when Ami swipes a commonplace looking strongbox from an unscrupulous banker, she becomes implicated in the banker's murder investigation.
Can the duo look past their petty squabbles and unravel the complicated nest of intrigue and subterfuge that surrounds the murder? Will Ami be able to let down her defensive walls and let Mikael help exonerate her?

Never been FOUND
HR - #8 in NewAuthor #29 in Humor and #144 in teen-fiction. I stopped blind walking when the cold breeze hit my skin stroking the hair off my face. I looked around and realized that we were in terrace. He pulled me to the edge of the terrace. I stopped to look at the beautiful sight in front of me. The city lights looked really alluring with the night sky. A perfect contrast of life and death. I heard a thud sound and looked at him siting on the edge of the terrace with both legs hanging in the air. He patted the place next to him indicating me to take the seat. I hesitated, it was risky sitting on the edge. I have never done that. He raised his chin to look at me. "Trust me," He said and I found myself sitting beside him already. I hung my legs freely, it took me a moment to settle and when I did I gave a big smile. It felt good. ------------ Not everything about Gianna Vertes is normal.
