This was originally titled Quicksilver Messenger, but based on some ideas from readers I have made some changes and retitled the series. In addition, I have a new editor that helped clean up some of the speed bumps in the story. Thanks to Glenn514. It is still the same basic story and the changes are not massive, but to me it is enough to warrant a new versi...
It had been another long day down at the precinct, interrogating a pair of knuckleheads who seemed a likely fit for a recent spate of drug store heists. Another day dealing with the scum who infested the city like a never-ending plague of vermin. Detective Jake Thomas had been on the force longer than he could remember and was now only a couple of years away...
Foreword: This is a repost of "Night Falls in Whitechapel" by me, since I've decided not to include this tale in my "Last Crusader" novel. I'll be posting this one along with "Night Falls: Berlin" as a companion piece. While this one is posted to Erotic Horror, "Berlin" will be posted to NonHuman. Probably on the same day, if everything goes right. One o...
Author's note: the entire personal backstory of the "Sarah" character is based on me. There really was a Kevin in my life, and he really did react that way in response to my actions.

I had no explanation. I'd been given the best opportunity of my young career and I was honored, excited and ambivalent at the same time. The result was intimidating, humbling, entertaining and educational and, yet, I was able to pull it off anyway. My name is Justin. I was working for a regional news organization just a year after graduating from University...
The jam started before I even reached the motorway. There was no turning back; I had been fined for reversing off the slip road on a previous occasion. I turned the radio on to hear that; "We are getting reports of an accident on the M60 clockwise." I should have turned it on earlier, but the alternative routes were through the outskirts of the city, I would...
CHAPTER 1 The sun reflected off the balding head of widower Buddy Dunlop as he arrived from poolside to see who was knocking at the backdoor. "Whatdoyerwant?" he said to the guy dressed in a khaki shirt and shorts and wearing boots, long black socks and a black Stetson and supported a big pack on his back. "Hi Uncle Buddy." Huh? "Is that you Dino?" "Sur...
Ethan walked with his head down, collar turned up against the chill wind that chased him down the dark street. Leaves rustled and tumbled by as the limbs overhead creaked and shivered against the cold fall wind. Even though it wasn't quite seven o'clock, the sun had long disappeared before Ethan began his walk home from the library to his home. He was in no...
