Detective prodigy Elucel Klein wasn't like any other detective; he was young, cunning, intelligent, and wise - gaining him a reputation no detective before him ever had.
Die-hard mystery fan Aurum Cinder has been waiting all her life for a mystery - one that would make her wrack her brain for answers, one that would put her mystery novel knowledge to the test.
Milirian Yard intern Wynstonne Yovelski is a skilled hacker with a goal to piss the hell out of a certain detective named Elucel.
Chief Inspector Callister Venere, a man known to have climbed up the rankings faster than anyone before him, has been looking for some thrill in his life full of bland, boring cases.
When a series of oddly executed murders - from victims being buried alive to a student hanging from a flagpole - rocks the school's foundation, the four - Elucel, Aurum, Wynstonne, and Callister - were bounded by fate to walk down the same path and solve the case and the reason to all the murders succeeding it.

Mark Whelms, PI #1: Mind Games
18 year old Mark Whelms has just opened up business as a private investigator, and it wasn't long before he was hired for his first case: A bank robber who has no memory of robbing the bank. He must figure out whether the robber is actually innocent and, if so, who is the one really behind the crime. Looks like he will definitely get a chance to put his power to good use. AUTHOR'S NOTE This is the full novella in its entirety, free to read. I wrote this back when I was in high school and self-published. It's not a bestseller by any means and my writing and perspective has strengthened exponentially since its initial release. When you read this, read knowing that this doesn't exactly represent me and my skills as an author. There's another novel coming for that soon.Complete
Chasing Casey
#1 Mystery | #1 Thriller | #1 Young Adult Have you ever known someone more than you know yourself? Known them so inside out that you could finish their sentences and know what they're thinking, just with a glance? That was Casey and I. We were the ultimate best friends. We knew more than we should about each other. I was hopelessly and undeniably in love with him. I still remember the day perfectly. I wish I could say there was something to hint that it was coming. There was nothing. I thought I knew everything about him. Apparently not. He killed himself and a part of me died along with him. He was dead, and so was I. Or, so I thought. ** Cover by Reachingformorex ** © 2017 by LaurenJ22. All rights reserved.Complete
