On an early Monday morning in Germany, Sankt Goarhausen's police department finds itself in a peculiar position as several policemen visit the site at the Rhine. Among them, 25-year old Henning Dorn is tasked to investigate the case of the salvage team's strange discovery: an unscathed coffin containing two bodies. 

As he opens the coffin to take a look, Dorn is severely surprised at its contents, setting him onto the path to uncover Sankt Goarshausen's mysteries.

Was it murder? Suicide? 

Or is the truth hidden beneath the Rhine's waters?

She knew that her twin brother Casey got into trouble outside of school, but she didn't know that he was getting into "Lukas Hasten" kind of trouble. And until Christmas break, the name Lukas Hasten meant nothing to her. Boy, those were the days. ******* Dev Asters is used to flying to Garber, Michigan every year for Christmas break. She's used to how her parents leave her and her brother behind to go on luxurious vacations. And she's used to spending most of her time with her aunt and uncle when her brother runs away with his friends. But the one thing that she isn't used to is having her routine, no matter how boring, interrupted. So when her parents tell her that they're moving to Garber in the summer, her world is turned upside down. Things seemingly can't get any worse. That is, until the day she meets Casey's friends. They agree to go to an abandoned house in the woods. But when they get there, they find something unthinkable. There's a dead body in the forest, and no one seems to know what happened or how it got there.

I wrote this when I was 16 give me a break. TAKEN SERIES: BOOK ONE TW: kidnapping, manipulation, toxic/abusive relationship, violence, death, grief, self-harm, suicidal thoughts/attempts, sexual assault, non-consensual sexual content, alcoholism, stockholm syndrome, switching partners, etc. Do not read this story if you get triggered easily. If you decide to continue, that's your own choice. This story will portray a BDSM relationship, NOT counting the toxicity and genuine abuse that goes on throughout it. Do not comment anything unnecessarily judgmental, especially if you don't know what you're talking about. Thank you, enjoy. - - - - - "Don't ever do something like that again, or I will kill you, understood? "Yes, sir." - - - - - After being continuously hurt, left alone, heart broken and losing the one thing that kept her going, Nia Seymour turns to a new job that will show her how to let loose, live her life and make her happy again.

The Boarding House Horror by guywortheyauthor
20 parts Complete
A much-hated man is found dead, his face twisted into a rictus of horror. Young Inspector Visser can't stand the sight of blood or death, so this case was destined to be a struggle, even before a storm hits. The death occurred in an isolated boarding house on Pluvierstraat, The Hague. Fighting nausea as he examines the body, Visser grudgingly concludes that the death is murder by poison. Which of the motley group of suspects is the killer? The blind woman? The practical jokester? The Italian ex-convict? The English bookie? The scarred railroad engineer? Or could it be the pretty piano teacher? Visser orders them all to stay inside the house as he completes his time-consuming police work. The confinement becomes real when a storm strikes, cutting electricity and telephone. Clues mount and tensions rise, and the murderer among them could kill again. The more clues Visser unravels, the closer he comes to becoming the next victim. ---- I tried to channel Agatha Christie a bit. Okay, more than a bit. This story was longlisted in the 2020 "Open Novella Contest," and won 2nd place in the 2022 Punk Rock Awards, Mystery & Suspense category. Comments welcome!

In a town where death remains a mystery, and burial is an utter secret. Those who walk along the wrong path, shall feel his presence. An angry presence. He's gone, but he's everywhere. - "Somebody's out there!" "How do you know it's a person?" "Because nature doesn't commit these vile acts." The scene's tension lingered. The rain tapped along the raincoats of those who stood beneath the oak tree in the middle of Norwich, Pennsylvania. They were at a secluded park. Nothing but trees and rain. The rain and soft breathing from the other individuals were all that could be heard. The occasional pounding of one's heart could be heard by the human ear. The squishing dirt beneath the weight of another was heard from a couple miles away. The mud oozed upward in between the toes of whomever the person had been. The rain poured along the grass, creating a mist that was difficult to see past. A dark figure appeared beyond the mist. The figure of a man. He stood there, menacingly. He wanted something. The itching look of his fingertips provided a clear answer that this man didn't come to play a game of hide 'n' seek, but came to play manhunt. - She didn't want to believe he was capable of these vile acts, for she had been blinded by his love. - **WARNING** Contains sexual/mature scenes, strong language, extreme graphic violence and some self harm.
