The Lady of WhitechapelThe fog on November seventh came down like a shroud over Whitechapel. Thomas Gray sat in his basement clinic on Dorset Street, listening to the cough of a coal miner's wife through the thin floorboards above. His blind eyes were turned toward the window, though there was nothing to see. The gas lamps on the street were already flickering on, casting long shadows through the fog that he could...0 Reacties 0 aandelen 2 Views 0 voorbeeldPlease log in to like, share and comment!

The Defiant SoulThe history of the world is written by the survivors, but the truth is kept by the dead. Leon was a man who refused to be a footnote. He was a revolutionary, not of nations, but of the soul. He believed that the greatest tyranny was not the crown or the sword, but the inevitable silence of the grave. When the Reaper came for him, Leon did not plead for mercy. He challenged the Reaper to a...0 Reacties 0 aandelen 0 Views 0 voorbeeld

The mirror in the bar on Dame Street showed him a man who was not quite himself. Seán O'Connor saw this every night, the way a man sees his own shadow—present, familiar, but never quite trusted.The scar on his face was not from a snake. It was from a blade, three years ago, in a psych ward in Tallaght, when a patient had turned on him and he had turned on himself. A mistake. A breakdown. A license revoked. The scar was the receipt. But some nights, in some bars, in some mirrors, the scar moved. Not much. Just a ripple, like something underneath the skin was breathing. He told himself...0 Reacties 0 aandelen 3 Views 0 voorbeeld

SHADOW OF SOLOMONThe crusaders had been gone from Jerusalem for three days when Yusuf found the jar. It was buried beneath the rubble of a house that had stood near the Temple Mount, a house that now was nothing but scattered stones and the smell of death. Yusuf was a fisherman by trade, though there had been little fishing in the days since the Franks captured the city. The rivers ran with blood, not water,...0 Reacties 0 aandelen 3 Views 0 voorbeeld

The Cost of ConvictionPart I: The Altar Rachel lived in the shadow of the skyscrapers, in a legal aid office that smelled of old paper and desperation. She didn't practice law; she fought wars. Her clients were the invisible people of New York—the undocumented, the evicted, the forgotten. She was a woman of fire and ink, believing that the law was a weapon that could be used to break the chains of the poor. Julian...0 Reacties 0 aandelen 3 Views 0 voorbeeld

The Elixir Invitation arrived on a Tuesday in November, bound in cream paper and sealed with black wax bearing a crest I had never seen. Inside was a single card:The Charing Cross Society requests the presence of Mr. Arthur Pendelton at Harrowfield House, Belgravia, Thursday the seventeenth at eight in the evening. No explanation. No return address. I stood in the gas-lit corridor of my lodgings above a shoe shop on Finsbury Street and read the card three times, each time feeling the same tight sensation in my chest — not fear, precisely, but the...0 Reacties 0 aandelen 3 Views 0 voorbeeld

The Ghost of Blackwood Manor (V-06)The moors of Yorkshire were a sea of undulating grey, a desolate landscape where the wind howled like a wounded animal, and Blackwood Manor stood as a lonely island of despair. Isadora had grown up believing she was the blood-heir to the estate, the golden child of the valley, the rightful mistress of the sprawling, ivy-choked halls. But the discovery of the hidden diary in the attic, bound in...0 Reacties 0 aandelen 1 Views 0 voorbeeld

V-14: The Healing Hearth(Victorian Redemption) The village of Oakhaven was a place of rigid morals and quiet judgments, where a single mistake could mark a person for life. Clara was the outcast, a woman whose past was a whispered scandal in the pews of the local church. She had returned to her ancestral home not as a daughter of the gentry, but as a woman seeking a quiet place to fade away, her heart a landscape of...0 Reacties 0 aandelen 2 Views 0 voorbeeld

sample-20675-The-Frozen-Witness## [English Version] Draft Zero of the Future This is a story about a story about a story, or perhaps it is a story about the story of a story, or maybe it is simply a story that knows it is a story and refuses to stop telling you that it knows. The rain in Los Angeles doesn't wash things clean. It just makes the grime slicker. This sentence has appeared in other versions of this text. It will...0 Reacties 0 aandelen 11 Views 0 voorbeeld

Through the Beak's EyeThe humans call this place "The Azure Heights," a glass-and-steel hive where they trade numbers for numbers and sleep in boxes of white linen. I call it the Great Cage. I am the resident of the mahogany perch in the living room of Unit 42B, and my world is defined by the scent of expensive espresso and the sound of breaking hearts. Julian is my primary observer. He is a man of sharp angles and...0 Reacties 0 aandelen 12 Views 0 voorbeeld

V-07: The Gilded WoundThe first time it happened, I told myself it was the light. Artists tell themselves a great many things. We tell ourselves that the shadows in a portrait are our shadows, that the colors we choose are our colors, that the way a sitter's face catches the light in my studio is a phenomenon of physics rather than a phenomenon of something for which I do not have a name and do not want to have a...0 Reacties 0 aandelen 11 Views 0 voorbeeld
