The Transfer by redlittleduck

Bobby McGee by WilsonGill

Swarthmoor, a small rural village in N.W. England is not the type of place you would associate with violent crime. Yet, in his first two years on the job, Robert McGee, the village policeman becomes entangled in two murder inquiries. Largely as a result of bad luck and policing errors McGee fouls up both investigations. Hopefully you, the reader, will be more astute. This non conventional story, set in the 1950s, involves characters already introduced in "Oh Henry", "The Drustone", and "Inheritance".

The 3 A.M. Rule | Chenford by hosiexa

There's an unspoken rule in the LAPD: if someone calls after 3 a.m., it better be life or death. So when Lucy Chen finds herself dialing Tim Bradford in the middle of the night after a nightmare, she expects silence - not for him to answer on the first ring. The call is short. Quiet. Safe. And it accidentally starts something they can't stop. What begins as a lifeline during sleepless nights becomes a ritual neither of them wants to break. Every call brings them closer - shared silences, confessions half-whispered into darkness, and feelings neither of them can admit under daylight. But when a dangerous call on duty nearly shatters everything, Tim and Lucy are forced to confront what's been growing between them - not with words mumbled through sleep, but with eyes open, hearts racing, and no more excuses. Because after so many calls at 3 a.m., they're both starting to realize... Maybe it was never just about the time. Maybe it's always been about each other. | I also post this on my AO3 account |

The Police face increased pressure as the facts start to implicate some of their own. A homeless man may hold the answers, but Mitch will have to gain his trust. Crime is on the streets. Corruption and betrayal have built the walls. Trust is a myth. The circle of crime will reveal the truth.

The Case of the Haunted Heart by girlintotv

Painted Bare by girlintotv

Lucy, an artist battling a creative block, finds unexpected inspiration in Tim, a police officer she asks to model for her to capture not only his body but the intriguing person beneath. Tim may not like her candid observations about him and certainly is not even that comfortable posing for her paintings, but after a few sessions modeling for her, he finds he likes her, and while Lucy was only looking to create a series of paintings for a showcase, she uncovers a connection with him that might be too deep and beautiful to be confined by the edges of a canvas.
