Brutal by TicTac_05

"I wish you were the one heading her case. She'd have gotten the justice she rightfully deserved," he said blatantly. *** NYCB is famous throughout New York City because of Lieutenant Ford, who is known for serving justice for one and all, no matter what. Chicago Ford is best at what she does, and having solved numerous cases, she's built up on her experience, too. Nonetheless, this case is different, because the murderer leaves absolutely no evidence, except for some trivial information. Emily Suskind is merely twenty when she's murdered. Brutally. Chicago is already on the hunt for her killer, with her team, when she finds that Suskind's best pals were also on the killer's list. Trying to uncover the grounds of this case, she comes across yet another mystery. A mystery she needs to break through in order to bring the killer to justice. *** 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐠𝐨 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 *** *This book is only available on Wattpad.

Sydney and Violet are best friends, which are basically sisters. They ride with each other, through thick and thin. But they did something so bad, that it looms over their heads. Unfortunately for them, what they don't know is someone's, always watching. They are being played, like chess pawns. Will they out smart that person, or will they fall into the trap?

The Devil In Disguise by Bribrijohnson123

Gianina thought her senior year would be filled with football games, late-night study sessions, and memories to carry her into the future. Instead, her small, quiet town is haunted by a killer in a red devil mask. Friends who once shared laughter and dreams are now suspects in a twisted game where trust is scarce, and survival is uncertain. As her closest friends begin falling one by one, Gianina finds herself caught between her loyal boyfriend Marcus, her childhood friend Rufus, her best friends Mary and Jordan, and their boyfriends Jamie and Cal, whose darkness runs deeper than she ever knew. With every new lead, Gianina questions the people closest to her, each glance and word laced with hidden motives. Her only goal: to end the bloodshed before everyone she loves is lost forever. But as secrets unravel, Gianina realizes she may be closer to the killer than she could have imagined. In a story where love, betrayal, and survival collide, she faces a terrifying question: can she outsmart a killer hiding in plain sight, or will she become the next victim in a silent, deadly masquerade?

{Wattys 2018 Winner - The Contemporaries} Versailles, France 1789: Where the only things more prevalent than opulence and wealth, are secrets. At the dawn of the French Revolution, Paris is divided. In the glittering palace of Versailles, courtiers party without a care in the world, but in the city, people must fight to stay alive. Eighteen-year-old courtier Gabriel de la Marche is part of both worlds. When Gabriel was fourteen, his older sister went missing, and desperation for answers led him to strike a deal with an underground organization of assassins-they would use their connections to help Gabriel find his sister, if Gabriel agreed to kill members of nobility under the alias L'Ange de la Mort. Four years later, he still hasn't found his sister, and the repercussions of his decision are catching up with him. But he fears it might be too late to turn back now. The daughter of a French mother and a wealthy English earl, Lizabeth survived in the womb when her twin brother did not. Believed by her family to be cursed, she has grown up shamed and unloved, locked away in her father's estate. That is, until Lizabeth's mother strikes a deal of her own. If Lizabeth travels to Versailles and kills L'Ange de la Mort, she'll be granted her freedom. At the palace, Gabriel and Lizabeth fall headfirst into love, neither of them knowing the other's secret. Amid lavish court life, Lizabeth desperately searches for the identity of L'Ange de la Mort while Gabriel searches for the person rumored to want him dead. And when the truth is finally revealed, they discover they've become entrapped in a plot bigger than either of them could have imagined. One which could change all of France. stunning cover by storms_and_seas! aesthetics by makovea!

In a post-apocalyptic world where human civilization has been renewed and altered, a private detective Derek Welsh, accepted a missing girl case from his friend, he didn't expect to be caught up in a tangled and deadly web of an organized crime group, The Underground, which has infiltrated the city and all its layers, including the law enforcement. By then, corpses of young girls started appearing all over the city. They were brutally raped, tortured and murdered. Derek, his partner Rita, must join forces with the police, including Derek's lover Captain Patricia Gisborne and an ex-junkie, Chester, who was involved in transporting one o the missing girls. All of them must face mortal peril because The Underground will stop at nothing to keep their claws in. New Chapters uploaded every week! I have started this book about two years ago. I have always wanted to write a book that I want to read and I love crime stories with a touch of darkness. The characters that I created are not perfect. They all have flaws, just like all of us and I love to play with those flaws. I created them by heart and my love to them is equal. The word I created in this story sets in a distant future, where humans were survivors of a gargantuan apocalyptic disaster. It changes the way of living but in some aspects, but humanity stays the same. The cycle repeats itself and you can always find similarities. I own all the copyrights of these stories and I will take matter seriously to plagiarism. I hope that you enjoy my stories and can be entertained by them. Happy Reading ! Warmest Regards, Naila Fauzia
