In the gritty, noir-infused city of Redemption, Detective Jack Donovan finds himself immersed in a web of corruption and deceit. When a prominent businessman is found dead under suspicious circumstances, Donovan's relentless pursuit of the truth uncovers a vast network of criminals, politicians, and power brokers who will stop at nothing to protect their secrets.

As Donovan delves deeper into the case, he becomes entangled with Evelyn Blackwood, a woman desperate to find her missing brother, Samuel, who was involved in a dangerous fight against the city's corrupt elite. Together, they navigate the treacherous underbelly of Redemption, unmasking the puppeteers pulling the strings behind the scenes.

With each revelation, Donovan and Evelyn face grave dangers, from lethal encounters with hired thugs to the constant threat of betrayal. Their determination to expose the truth unites them in a battle against the shadows that have enveloped the city.

As Donovan uncovers the far-reaching influence of a clandestine organization known as The Syndicate, he realizes that his pursuit of justice may come at a heavy price. The lines blur between allies and enemies, and Donovan must confront the darkness within himself to protect those he holds dear.

In a climactic showdown, Donovan confronts the leaders of The Syndicate, exposing their malevolent deeds to the light of day. But victory comes at a cost as Donovan's city trembles on the edge of chaos, and his own demons threaten to consume him.

Through sacrifice, unwavering determination, and an unyielding belief in the power of redemption, Donovan and Evelyn fight to reclaim their city from the clutches of corruption. As the dust settles, they find themselves standing at the precipice of a new era, where justice and hope begin to replace the shadows that once engulfed Redemption.

LADY SATANS, écrit par Vincenzocassano1236
20 chapitres En cours d'écriture
They called themselves Lady Satans-a group of seven women bound by blood, loss, and an unbreakable vow. Their families had vanished without a trace, and with no one willing to help, they had only one option: descend into the dark, ruthless underworld to uncover the truth. But the shadows of the mafia hold secrets far deadlier than they imagined. As they rise through the ranks of crime, Melina, their fearless leader, can't shake the memory of those piercing blue-gold eyes-eyes that watched as her world fell apart. With each step closer to the truth, the stakes grow higher, and the line between ally and enemy blurs. When the Lady Satans cross paths with the revenants , led by the enigmatic Alaric Rune Luciano, alliances are tested, obsessions ignite, and old wounds resurface. But not everyone is who they claim to be. As secrets unravel and betrayals cut deep, Melina must face a chilling revelation: the enemy she seeks may be closer than she ever imagined. In a world of lies, love, and lethal intentions, how far will they go to bring their families back? And who will survive when the truth finally comes to light? Disclaimer.do not copy my book.

The Demon of Saint-Eli, écrit par riversmelodie
1 chapitre Terminé Contenu pour adultes
When a young devout woman seek out his help, the mysterious private investigator Simeon Engels knows that something peculiar is happening behind the masquerade of the town's most powerful man. But he will need to be careful... for justice can very easily be mistaken for bloodlust. The first ever short story of mine to earn a Mature filter (as it typically makes me uncomfortable to write dark and gritty stories), and, another first, one completely outside of the universes of my previous stories. It's completely standalone, with its own mythology and fantasy/realism rules, etc. Which made it even more so liberating, as I no longer needed to stick within an existing continuity in terms of what's possible and what's not. The Demon of Saint-Eli is the introduction (in an hopefully long collection of short stories) of an OC that I have come to love the concept for months: Simeon Engels, the mysterious private investigator that hides a greater secret than anyone could ever guess. At first wishing it to be a Victorian/film noir hybrid, I changed it instead to a steampunk setting, that allowed a greater range of what could be integrated in the story. Overall, I hope you enjoy this story. I hope to make it into a collection of stories revolving around the adventures and character development of Simeon Engels, and I hope that you will find him as interesting as I conceptualize him to be. 9th May 2021: this story is now part of a sale of art for charity. This will remain up for previewing the stories, but upon purchase, will be removed from Wattpad.

This book is available on Kindle/KU !!! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DJHFMW3Q I thought I knew what I wanted from this life. That is until I met the Valor brothers and it turned my world upside down. I kill for a living, something familiar to the brothers as they navigate their own illicit company in this industry. They've made a name for themselves, but that doesn't mean I can get close. I've disentangled my life from the work I do and getting involved with them is something I can't risk. When the stakes get too high will that still hold true? Will I finally give into the feelings that I'm pushing deep down? Will the brothers let me into their lives? Its a clusterfuck of problems, but I better figure it out before my demons take over completely. He's coming for me and as much as I want to push these brothers away, they might just end up being my salvation. Either that or my demise... Lilah: The Assassin, The Avoidant, The Addiction Maverick: The Leader. Mav's sole responsibility is keeping his brothers safe. It's all he cares about and he will do anything to make that possible, even if it means denying the woman he wants. Onyx: The Mask. Onyx is closed off to everyone in the world except his brothers. To everyone else he is a sceptic, but he keeps everything close to his heart. Can he really trust her? Dame: The Pretty Boy. Dame is all jokes and smiles, a puppy at one point then a guard dog the next. When he loves, he loves hard. Kai: The Pyschopath. Kai thrives off blood and pain--nothing can satiate him the way those do. No one can handle his moods or his needs. Can she?
KIDNAPPED , écrit par 06Aman
20 chapitres En cours d'écriture Contenu pour adultes
The vines always grow back. Reneè never wanted to be a hero. She just wanted to survive. After witnessing a brutal murder tied to the infamous Mr. Carlisle, seventeen-year-old Reneè becomes the last living witness-and his next target. Carlisle is a ghost, a myth whispered in the city's underbelly, and his influence reaches far beyond the shadows. With her aunt branding her a monster and her only friend vanished, the police are her only hope. But when Officer Jones takes her in for protection, Reneè realizes too late: safety is an illusion when you come face to face with the devil himself, Mr. Carlisle. Police protection is like a child's game to him. Now, trapped in a web of corruption, betrayal (from her aunt, mostly) and manipulation, Reneè must outrun Carlisle's empire. The world she knew has fallen away, leaving her isolated in a dangerous game where the rules are his alone. Because the vines of his influence are everywhere-some might be in the judge's gavel, the neighbor's smile, even the hands that promise to protect her. He is a master manipulator, pulling strings that control her fate and her heart. And the deeper she fights, the tighter they coil. But when the vines start growing inside her mind, who's really trapped? Is it her, bound by his obsessive world, or is it him, tethered by a desire he never saw coming?

Through Hollow Eyes- A Carson Graves Novel

7 chapitres En cours d'écriture Contenu pour adultes

Detective Carson Graves is running out of time-and running out of himself. Haunted by a past he can't escape and a strange ability he never asked for, Graves walks the line between solving murders and being consumed by them. When a string of killings tears through the city, each victim tied to secrets better left buried, Carson is pulled into a case that feels less like an investigation and more like a reckoning. This is not a story of clean answers or easy justice. It's a descent into crime, corruption, and the hollow places where truth hides. Fans of dark detective fiction and supernatural twists will find themselves at home here-if home is a city of shadows and nothing is ever what it seems.
