    "Careful, Detective-nim. Keep looking at me like that and I might think you like me." A blood-soaked box. A severed head. No fingerprints. No body. Just a single note: 𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗗 𝗠𝗘. Officer Park Nyra is known for solving the unsolvable-but this case? It's taunting her. And her only lead is Kim Taehyung: a convicted murderer with a smug mouth, locked in a high-security psychiatric facility... who somehow sketches the victims before they die. He claims he's not the killer. She doesn't believe a word he says. But the bodies keep coming. The drawings keep matching. And Taehyung? He's starting to look less like a witness-and more like a trap she's already stepped into. Who's really hunting who? CONTENT WARNING ⚠ This book contains extremely graphic and explicit scenes of violence, torture, and psychological distress. The descriptions are vivid and unsettling, designed to evoke strong emotional reactions. Reader discretion is strongly advised. If you are sensitive to intense depictions of pain, blood, or horror, this story may not be suitable for you. Proceed with caution.

    wild card noun a playing card that can have any value, suit, color, or other property in a game. a person or thing whose influence is unpredictable or whose qualities are uncertain. Steven I'm the best student. Top of my class in everything. It's summer before senior year, but the valedictorian title is mine. I need it. I crave it. I don't have time to play detective with Jeremiah or to worry about the fact his sister is losing her shit and no one else seems to notice. But I agree to help him. And Cassadra distracts me so much I accidentally make my least favorite Cousins resident think she's my girlfriend. He doesn't believe it, of course, so I have to plead my case with her. No one knows what she's been up to lately, must be trouble, when it comes to her it always is. But this is my only chance not to make a fool of myself. We'll just fake date for a few weeks. What could go wrong? Cassandra It's sad how little it took. One minute, I was a reckless teenager drinking tequila with my best friend. All I had to worry about was my parents potential divorce, my older brother having a meltdown and having fun because it was summer. No biggie. And now everything is ruined. I'm ruined. Steven is not high on the list of people I'd go for help, but he'll have to do. It's a good way to keep a close eye on the little investigation he's running with Jere, to make sure he doesn't find out my involvement. I just hope Steven doesn't reveal our ruse if he finds out, he's already paying too much attention to me. Because that's all this is. A lie. A means to an end. I don't love him, I barely like him, I need to keep that in mind. It'll be fine. Just a few weeks. What could go wrong?

Only that when something goes wrong at Aurelius - when scandals threaten reputations or blood stains marble - three names quietly surface. Aria Bennett. Elara Quinn. Nyra Donovan. They don't hold titles. They don't wear crowns. But they see everything. Find.(F) Investigate.(I) EXpose.(X) It's not a club. It's not official. It's just what they do. This time, though, the truth is bigger than a cover-up. Lucien Harrington - heir, genius, rival - should be the last person Aria works with. But the deeper they dig, the clearer it becomes: This wasn't an accident. And someone powerful is making sure it stays buried. Vivian Blackwood is too calm. Dominic Ashcroft is watching too closely. Mira Bennett is smiling when she shouldn't be. And somewhere between rivalry and something far more dangerous, lines begin to blur. Because at Aurelius Grand Academy, gold doesn't just decorate the walls. It hides the rot beneath. And if FIX pulls at the wrong thread- Everything will unravel.

    Celia Jones can talk to the dead, but getting on with them is a different story. She always has at least three spirits following her around, complaining about their relatives, or the inadequacy of their funeral arrangements. The latest is a murdered actress, Maude Domby, but she's less interested in denouncing her killer than in accusing the understudy of stealing her favourite pearls. When the charming but utterly fraudulent medium Stanley Winter holds a séance to contact Maude, Maude insists she and Celia should attend, to see people mourning her 'properly'. But the séance ends up implicating an innocent woman, and now Stanley Winter is banging on Celia's door, begging her to help him find Maude's real killer. Unfortunately, helping Stanley Winter could lead Celia to confront her other power - the one that's both lighter and infinitely darker than talking to the dead. ONC Prompt: 72. A real necromancer sits in on a fake séance.

    In a city where a single flower is worth more than a man's life, some secrets are deadly enough to kill for. Amsterdam, 1637. At the height of the insane Tulip Mania, a group of the city's wealthiest speculators gather on a lavish barge, De Vergulde Lelie (the Gilded Lily), for a secret auction. The prize: the Semper Augustus, a tulip bulb so rare it could buy a palace. But before the first bid is cast, the night is shattered by a scream. The host, a ruthless and widely hated speculator, is found murdered. The priceless bulb is gone. Trapped on the barge by the frozen canals, a handful of suspects are locked in a cage of opulence and fear: the bitter rival on the brink of ruin, the indebted English lord, and the vengeful farmer who claims the bulb was stolen from him first. The city watch sees a simple case of greed. But they're not looking closely enough. Signor Alvise Grimaldi, a disgraced Venetian glassmaker living in exile, sees what the others miss. He's not a detective; he's an artist with an eye for fatal flaws. While everyone else is blinded by the missing bulb, Grimaldi is drawn to the real heart of the crime: the silent, stolen glances between the victim's beautiful, trapped wife, Katarina, and the brilliant, obsessive painter, Frans van Loo. Their forbidden love is a secret far more dangerous than any financial debt. As Grimaldi peels back the layers of deception, he realizes the murder wasn't a simple robbery. It was a crime of passion, a desperate act disguised to look like greed. Now, he's in a silent duel with a killer who is just as much an artist of deception as Grimaldi is of glass. In a world gone mad with speculation, can a broken artist expose a truth hidden in a single drop of paint before the ice thaws and a devastating secret sinks them all?

    25-year-old Grace Avery is a stunning woman working as a detective/investigator. Due to her looks, she often gets sexist remarks from her colleagues, seen only as an object of praise and beauty rather than a fellow detective. Annoyed and frustrated, she goes to an old friend for help and assistance, asking for a partner who doesn't care about her looks and has the brains to work with her, to which she learns that there is a person who could help her, the problem lays in the fact that, that person is the very same man who Grace knew and hated in high school, Basil M. House. Will Grace continue to hate his guts? Is Basil the same man whom Grace knew in High school? And will their relationship change? This is a reimagining of Sherlock Holmes stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Besides being a reimagining, it's also a composite of different mystery stories and movies that I loved, so don't be surprised if some of the cases or puzzles look familiar. Apologies for the grammar mistakes:( Really enjoyed writing this:) This story is also on royal road
