Then one tourist is executed.

Dark Places
An acclaimed, award-winning thriller, published and translated around the world, now freely available on Wattpad. Paul Wood is a modern vagabond, a man who chooses to leave the comforts of San Francisco to spend months backpacking through some of the world's most challenging terrain. While hiking in the Himalayas, Paul gets more of a rush than he bargained for when he finds the body of a murdered hiker - mutilated in a way he has witnessed once before, in Africa, years ago and thousands of miles away. The police in Nepal, anxious to quell a scandal, close the case and declare the victim a suicide. Only Paul is left to search for answers. He reaches out to his farflung tribe of fellow backpackers for help, and his discoveries lead him to a terrible conclusion: a killer is stalking the international backpacker trail, preying on victims in wild places far beyond the reach of any authorities. A killer whom Paul may already know. Finding the murderer becomes an obsession that leads Paul from Himalayan peaks, through the jungles of Indonesia, across the bleak Sahara desert -- and into some of the darkest places imaginable... Dark Places won the 2005 Arthur Ellis Award for Best First Novel. Reviews "You're hooked ... the characters are delightfully delineated ... beautifully controlled ... Evans contrives to slip the necessary specialist net-head detail into the plot without being boring or patronising. He can also pin down a character with a few details deftly brushed in ... A pacy thriller for the 21st century." - The Times "Anyone would enjoy Evans' clever, relentlessly absorbing debut thriller that becomes a lot more than just another serial-killer mystery." - The Ottawa Citizen "In this haunting suspense debut, Evans takes the reader on a page-turning adventure across five continents ... (a) spooky, inventive tale." - Publishers WeeklyConcluída
Resident Evil 5
Same as my other 10 books I wrote Resident evil 0, 1, 2, 3, Operation Raccoon City, Code Veronica, The Umbrella Chronicles , The Darkside Chronicles, Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil Revelations #1. This is Resident Evil 5. I will be playing the game and writing it through, some in my own words and some as per the game. I am not going into deep, deep details either... Like this is just a enjoyment for me to write and publish for the heck of it. It's not going to be perfect. There is no movies or books that I seen that are really close to the games, story type. Took it into my own hands basically. If you like it you like it if not then not. I'm writing this because I adore Resident Evil games and felt like it would be fun for me to play and write about the story of the games. (It is copywritten from the game) (Rights reserved to capcom) Now the people that have never played the games here is what this one is about... Starting off at the Spencers Manoir Chris and Jill are on the mission to take down Spencer and find out where Wesker is. Chris then gets posted in Africa to search for Irving and to get more information about the new project called Uroboros. Partnered with Sheva Alomar. They uncover secrets and Chris finds out something that troubles him deeply turning his attention to another mission aside from Irving and Uroboros.Concluída![Satire And Gunfire [✔]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/163919972-256-k957815.jpg)

The Follower
Life has evolved and more technologies appeared. The internet is the main brain of these technologies, but that doesn't mean that it's safe. It is said that we are only using 10% to 15% of the entire internet, so where is the left of it that's the question. That's not the main point the point is how people could use the internet. Some could use it for social life, some could use it for doing research and some could use it to track you down and know every single move you do. They could hear everything, know your next destination. Maybe now you're being followed and tracked down by someone but you just don't know. Just as the characters in the story. The story is based on possible events that could occur in these days. Nobody knows what's out there on the internet, and what's in people's minds. Beware the internet, beware of the people around you, beware of the people you give trust to, beware of the mysterious follower that stalks you that is obsessed with you without you knowing. * Story chapters will be published one by one as a tv series to make the reading part easier and give more excitement to what's coming* Thanks for reading.Concluída
