A widow embarks upon a crusade to find the truth about her husband's mysterious death and the chilling faces he saw in the rain.

Gwenn Chapel watched the rain wash her husband away like a fingerprint on a window. Through that watery curtain, Detective John Chapel insisted he saw faces, faces that cried out to him, trying to share with him some secret only he was meant to know. He died chasing those faces, looking for his ""Girl in the Rain"", and he took those secrets to his grave. Or did he?

With the aid of her husband's cryptic journal, an eccentric history professor and a con artist, she begins a journey that will challenge everything she believed about her husband, her faith, and the limits of her own sanity. Will she be able to face what awaits her at the end of that journey, or will she share the same fate as him?All Rights Reserved

MONSTERS WEAR MASKS by Whizzkid0802

Detective Elias Voss spent years chasing shadows, hunting down the enigmatic criminal known as The Watcher-a mastermind who used riddles and twisted games to expose the darkest truths of society. But when Voss finally catches the villain, the true game begins. The Watcher doesn't fight. They don't run. They simply smile and whisper: "You were never supposed to find me." From that moment, Voss's world begins to unravel. As he delves deeper into the case, the lines between justice and corruption blur. He bends rules, breaks laws, and makes choices he swore he never would-all in the name of stopping the evil he once despised. But every step forward only leads him closer to a chilling realization: He isn't hunting the Watcher anymore. He is becoming them. Now, the city is searching for a new villain. What they don't realize is that their hero has already transformed into the monster he was chasing. And as the final riddle is left behind-etched in walls, whispered in the streets, painted in mirrored eyes-one question remains: "Was he always meant to fall... or did the world push him to it?" In this gripping psychological thriller, Monsters Wear Masks explores the terrifying truth that sometimes, the only difference between a detective and a villain... is perspective.
