Once they are confident about their foolproof plan, they would wait for the perfect opening and then bam! He paused and glanced at the sub-inspector. ‘To me Navpreet,’ said the inspector pensively, glancing over at the sub-inspector, ‘this looks like the type two murder done by someone with a controlled intelligence. Nothing is random here ... and that black sweater has got to be the key to this riddle. Believe me, when we discover the truth behind that sweater, we would have solved the case.’ There was something indescribable about the way the inspector said those words. It was as if he was standing in front of a closed door, aware of the secret it guarded.

An international arms dealer with connections to cartels, mercenaries, and governments, he was a ghost who lived in the cracks of the world’s power structures. I’d studied him for weeks. His movements were precise, almost surgical. He didn’t just eliminate threats; he obliterated them. This mission wasn’t about skill. It was about survival. They’d given me a slim file, some basic intel, and a warning: “Don’t underestimate him.” But they’d underestimated me. I wasn’t just a killer; I was a survivor. The streets had taught me that long before my handler gave me a gun. 2 VIKTOR They always send the pretty ones.

“What about you, Mr. Brady, do you read?” "I haven't read in a while. I like thrillers. Lee Child, James Patterson, Stephen King." He tells us as he reaches and takes a piece of steak. "Have you read Harlan Coben? He writes some amazing thrillers like Drop Shot, One False Move, and Tell No One." I'm in my element now. This is safe ground, I love talking about books. I love almost every genre out there. I'll give anything a go once. Indie authors are my favorite as their work is so unique, it's like a diamond in the rough.

The soft thud of scattered papers followed, but the thunderous crash of her ledger book hitting the ground truly shattered the stillness, reverberating through the confined space like a gunshot. The impact jolted Angela, freezing her in place as an icy chill traced its path down her spine. The air hung heavy with an electrifying tension, igniting a flicker of apprehension deep within her core. In that stark moment, she understood: the calm was a mere prelude, and the storm had finally unleashed its fury.

Toby asked with an etched eyebrow, watching Yara pull out a big sized novel from the shelf and Barnes smile proudly. "Thatweird_author." she replied, holding the novel up to his eye level.

Toby asked, a smile rested on his face as Yara looked at him in perplexity.

While I am waiting, I pick up the book by his bedside and read the title, ‘Six of Crows’, I turn it around to read the blurb, it was about six thieves trying to pull off an impossible heist to save their country. The book seemed like a very interesting read, maybe after Blake was done with the book, I could read after him. In the meantime, I bring out my phone and I open the app I have for books. I go the book I am currently reading, it is murder mystery/ thriller, titled ‘As good as dead’ and it is very interesting and intriguing.

Instead, they just started flipping through the pages of the book, looking for which store to choose. While I was standing there next to them, praying they didn’t choose more than a few of the stories. “Poison, this one seems interesting.” The outgoing twin stated about to touch the page. I muttered a few curses under my breath that they ‌either didn’t hear or ignored. Although Poison wasn’t the darkest story in my book; it wasn’t the lightest either. “Shouldn’t we read the book description first?” the other twin asked “Of course not! Who even reads book descriptions?” was the first one’s response.

Wait and I will use a cheap knife for killing them. I stood up from the bed and go to my comfort room to pee. It’s already 3:00 am, I realized it’s the devil hour and I got up from a shitty dream. I finished peeing and immediately go to my bed. I roamed my eyes around. Ace is my next target yet I can’t finalize my plan. It was too hard to think of a successful plan how to kill them all.

I beamed. "Crazy, isn't it?" "Fucking crazy, for real." "First, we put THE DA VINCI CODE by DAN BROWN here." He picked out the book and inserted it in the center line of the shelf. He put HOW TO STOP TIME by MATT HAIG, followed by EVERGREEN by NAOMI HIRAHARA. "Then KISS THE GIRLS by JAMES PATTERSON." He put it next to the first book. "I've read that." I went on in a spur of excitement. "It's a thriller and mystery novel about a detective who's trying to track down a serial killer. So many twists and cliffhangers. Total page-turner." I giggled.
