The pieces are scattered on the chessboard, but now one of the pawns is missing, or has it merely changed its shape? DO YOU PLAY CHESS? Charlie does, but then, he can do almost anything.

The Boarding House Horror
A much-hated man is found dead, his face twisted into a rictus of horror. Young Inspector Visser can't stand the sight of blood or death, so this case was destined to be a struggle, even before a storm hits. The death occurred in an isolated boarding house on Pluvierstraat, The Hague. Fighting nausea as he examines the body, Visser grudgingly concludes that the death is murder by poison. Which of the motley group of suspects is the killer? The blind woman? The practical jokester? The Italian ex-convict? The English bookie? The scarred railroad engineer? Or could it be the pretty piano teacher? Visser orders them all to stay inside the house as he completes his time-consuming police work. The confinement becomes real when a storm strikes, cutting electricity and telephone. Clues mount and tensions rise, and the murderer among them could kill again. The more clues Visser unravels, the closer he comes to becoming the next victim. ---- I tried to channel Agatha Christie a bit. Okay, more than a bit. This story was longlisted in the 2020 "Open Novella Contest," and won 2nd place in the 2022 Punk Rock Awards, Mystery & Suspense category. Comments welcome!Complete

CODED IN BLOOD
In the dangerous shadows between nations, some secrets are worth killing for... London, 1995. The Cold War may be over, but its deadliest weapons are still in play. MI6 operative Elara "Phoenix" Mercer is used to dancing with death. When a series of precision assassinations targets former intelligence officers across Europe, she's tasked with tracking down the killer. What begins as a standard investigation quickly spirals into something far more sinister-a conspiracy reaching the highest levels of global intelligence. As bodies continue to drop, Elara forms an uneasy alliance with Marcus Reed, a CIA operative with his own agenda. Together, they follow a trail of breadcrumbs through the underbelly of post-Soviet Europe-Prague's hidden networks, Istanbul's shadowy markets, and Moscow's frozen secrets. But with each revelation comes a new question: Why do her recurring nightmares feel connected to this mission? What connects these victims beyond their intelligence backgrounds? And why does the trail of evidence keep circling back to a classified Soviet program called "Prometheus"? With enemies hidden in plain sight and a bioweapon capable of targeted genocide about to be unleashed, Elara must confront not only external threats but the darkness in her own past. In a world where loyalty is currency and betrayal is an occupational hazard, the most dangerous secret may be the one buried in her own mind. Some protocols are written in shadow. Some truths are coded in blood. A sophisticated spy thriller set in the volatile post-Cold War era, where yesterday's allies are today's enemies, and the most valuable weapon is knowing who to trust.Complete

"It felt like I was watching someone else's life. It was like a movie. Pictures flashed around me, and I saw myself receiving an award from a man in a suit. I saw Alexander I saw myself running with Erica as a silo blew up behind us. I saw a scene where I was shaking hands with Zoe, Warren behind her. I saw Warren's betrayal. I saw the moment I realized Murray was the mole. I saw myself laughing, playing on the beach with Ashley and Nefarious. I saw me desperately trying to diffuse a bomb. I saw I saw many different things. Acts of love, hatred, betrayal. Then, I saw the deaths. I saw the death of Warren, as he took a bullet to the stomach. I saw the day I was shot too, Erica above me, screaming. I saw myself shooting Joshua Hallal in the head, and Erica crying over his body. I felt a surge of jealousy at the scene too.
