Dave Murray is rotting in a Bangkok prison cell, terrified he's going to be sentenced to death and it's all because of a bad decision... and a woman.

A few weeks earlier, he had been a bored office worker with a booze problem until a disastrous relationship triggered a series of events which led him to Thailand and destroyed his life. 

Can anyone save him? Does anyone want to?

Ruins (The Jewel Project #6) by Wimbug

"There's nothing ever certain about life. Sometimes we believe we're winning when, in fact, we only trap ourselves deeper under ruins of our own making." Everything is crumbling in a state of increased uncertainty. Even if for the past year, life seemed to calm down, the lingering state of limbo has Sam and his team on the edge. There's something wrong, something about to happen, and strange vibes are coming from both the Agency, who have been quieter than usual, and Snitch Gravel who plans one final strike against the group. The release of Snitch Gravel's right hand man is the spark needed to detonate the powder keg. Caught helpless and unprepared, the team faces the worst of what Snitch Gravel can throw at them, and the only ones who can end it are the ones who got away. An exhausted Jessie, and a Jimmy who has no recollection of his former self. As Sam tries to navigate the intricate corridors of Snitch Gravel's motivation, everyone must face off with what they feared most. The ghosts of past adventures and the consequences of the life they've made for themselves. Because consequences can never be ignored, and sometimes, you need to be more vicious than the other side in order to survive. 🏯🏯🏯 I know the blurb is super vague, but I really don't want to give anything from this book away 😅 Sequel to Lose Control Epic cover by @italychick

LCP : Last Chance Penitentiary by AmeliaCrossGE

If you're looking for an adventure in the morally grey, and a crash course of the human condition, this is the story for you! What is good and evil? Where is that line drawn, and who decides that? Packed with humor, danger, feels, and awkward relationships, Last Chance Penitentiary leaves its impression on everyone. *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** When Nathan pushes back at a bully in his high school, and the boy takes a tumble down the stairs, he finds himself on the wrong side of the law, and he must choose between prison or the experimental LCP facility.

Nothing is what it seems behind the walls of LC Penitentiary, and there, he struggles to live among five convicted felons. Somethings are terrifying, as he expected they would be, but others light and gentle, hidden beneath the faces of monsters that could resurface at any moment. Everyone in LC penitentiary is a dance of faces, of masks one wears to blend in with prey. Which faces are real, which the lures? And will Nathan one day don a mask of his own, to bury the gentleness in his heart behind the violence and hatred that ended him up there in the first place? ----- Rachel is the daughter of the Mayor by day and one of the hood kids at night. Nothing was dangerous to her until she stumbled upon the inmates of LC Penitentiary. Intending only to take a step onto the edges of LC Penitentiary, it drags her under into a world of violence, pain, and unfathomable sadness.

DAVID AND THE BEANSTALK by NickClash10

In the year 2018, a poor boy known as David and his equally as poor, single mom are constantly starving and have very little to no money. But after David meets a strange man one day, who trades him something that he says can help him and his mother out, David has no idea what he has gotten himself into. Soon, David finds himself in a strange land and it's there that he really gets himself into trouble! Big trouble! Really big trouble!

This story also has mature content, profanity, drama, action, comedy, suspense, violence, adventure and death.

Red Red Rabbithole by fionnwrites

Detective Vegas Theerapanyakul has anger issues (and a whole lot of other problems). But as long as he can do his job, everything will be fine --- until it isn't.   When he lashes out against his partner, he's forced to attend anger management training with the Police Department's newly hired, fresh out of university, psychologist Pete Saengtham. At the same time, something wicked stalks the streets of Bangkok, and soon the bodies are piling up left and right. Confronted with increasingly nightmarish crime scenes, Vegas slowly comes to realise that there might very well be a serial killer on the loose. And if that weren't bad enough, somehow his therapist enthusiastically inserts himself into the ongoing investigation and Vegas suddenly finds himself in charge of an oddball team, in a desperate race against time. Any distraction now could be deadly---and Pete turns out to be very distracting. Caught in a whirlpool of conflicting emotions caused by a forbidden attraction, and with a killer who redirects his attention towards the police officer hunting him, Vegas is struggling to keep his head above the water. And when amidst all this Vegas' ugly family issues resurface, he inevitably finds himself spiralling into the darkness---straight into the waiting arms of the Abyss.

Everyone always tells him that there might still be hope, but treatment is living hell and he just wants it to end. When the two cross paths unexpectedly, they begin to influence each other, Portland coming to terms with death and Asher finally deciding there's something worth living for. DISCLAIMER!
