Coldcases Stories

In 1970, eighteen‑year‑old Diane Carter takes a housekeeping job at the Crow family estate - a place whispered about in town, a place her mother warned her never to enter. But inside those white walls, she meets Rebecca Whitfield Crow, the lonely young wife of powerful Robert David Crow. What begins as quiet friendship becomes something deeper, something dangerous, something neither of them has ever dared to want. But Willow's Rest is a town where secrets rot in the dark... and where a woman's bruises are called "marriage problems." When Robert's violence spirals out of control, one stormy night in 1972 changes everything. A struggle. A fall. A body on the floor. And two young women forced to run from the only home they've ever known - and from the truth that could destroy them. Fifty‑three years later, in 2025, Detectives Elias Monroe and Caroline Holt reopen the cold case that Willow's Rest buried. Diane and Rebecca, now in their seventies and living under new names, are finally found. But the truth isn't simple. Love never is. And some secrets don't stay buried - not even after half a century. A dual‑timeline Southern gothic mystery about forbidden love, survival, and the price of silence.

Eight years ago, Maxwell Voltaire's brother was murdered by a man no one could identify-except for one detail. A strange, ugly mark. A star. Now a student at the prestigious Greenwood Academy, Max has spent years trying to forget the face he can barely remember and the hatred that never faded. But on the anniversary of his brother's death, the past resurfaces in the worst way possible. Because in this world, stars aren't just distant lights-they leave their mark. Hidden among ordinary people are those born under rare celestial conditions, individuals branded with star marks and granted abilities that evolve over time. They move through society unseen, shaping gangs, governments, and the balance of power itself. And Max... might be one of them. Now, forces he doesn't understand are starting to close in-people who would rather erase him than risk what he could become. With no one to trust and nowhere to run, Max is forced to fight back. Because surviving isn't enough anymore. He'll have to build something of his own.

I asked, walking. Her reply was something I will never forget. "No," she said. "I'm the exhibit." Author's Note: I post a new chapter almost every single day!
