After bodies start appearing in the middle of the streets, hollowed and headless, Detective Rashida Heyes and her partner, Travis Virgil, are given the case. However, once they dig deeper, meeting the emotionally broken Victor Eccelstone, and realize how heavily the church is involved, Rashida has to acknowledge that this case might be bigger than she had ever imagined. These crimes aren't the act of one man - they're the beginning of the end of the world

Blood Bargain by CamelliaCarroll
28 parts Complete Mature
Conjure a demon to catch a killer? That's Appalachian witch Ellie's last remaining hope to solve a two year old cold case that haunts her nightmares. She's still grieving her late fiancé, but the few Boone residents that don't think she killed him herself have given up on finding the murderer. Kazerin, on the other hand, is not prepared for what awaits him when he answers Ellie's request. He's used to bargaining for lust or power, not closure, and he's a little nervous about what feelings stir up the longer he's around Ellie. Their feelings only entangle further the longer that Kaz stays in town, pretending to be Ellie's new fiancé as a cover for investigating the murder. Follow Ellie and Kaz in an alternate history where Others-- demons, vampires, angels, shifters, and many more beings-- roam the earth, magic is alive and burning bright, and blood runs deeper than just our ancestry. BLOOD BARGAIN is Book #1 in the Appalachian Magic companion book series. Each story can be read as a standalone, but some characters and locations recur.

To Capture a butterfly- Obsession is The most dangerous game

63 parts Ongoing Mature

Isaac Blackwoods, a methodical and unyielding detective, has always prided himself on uncovering the truth-no matter how deeply it hides in the shadows. When a string of high-profile kidnappings shakes the city, targeting the rich and powerful, Isaac is assigned to investigate. What seems like a series of isolated crimes soon reveals itself to themselves pulled into a labyrinth of lies, secrets, and dangerous power struggles. The more they uncover, the more they realize that these kidnappings aren't random-they're part of a meticulously planned game with far-reaching consequences. Every clue Isaac uncovers seems to lead to more questions, and with each step, he feels the cold presence of an unseen force that seems to be watching his every move. The closer he gets to the truth, the more tangled he becomes in a web of deception that threatens not only his career but his very life. But there's one thing Isaac doesn't know-he's not just chasing a case. He's being watched by someone who sees him as the missing piece to a much larger, far darker puzzle. In a world where the truth is as elusive as it is dangerous, Isaac must face the harsh reality that sometimes the only way out is to become a part of the game.
