Crime? In his case crime really did pay it would seem. Everything about him screamed money. It was so different to me. He was so different to me and maybe that’s why I was so attracted to him. Not for his money but because like he had said he was so darkly dangerous. Even dressed casually like he was, it poured off of him in waves.

"Just Black Rose business. The usual chaos." She didn't look convinced but she didn't push, and I was grateful for that. We sat there in the quiet, the afternoon light streaming through the window and painting everything in shades of gold and amber. She started telling me about the book she'd been reading, some mystery novel that Elias had sworn she'd enjoy, and I found myself listening not to the words but to the sound of her voice, the way it rose and fell with her enthusiasm.

"I didn't see it coming at all.

“Oh, it's just booking.” I’m not listening to her, though. My blood is thundering in excitement. “These are—How did these—” I can’t even form a coherent sentence, just staring at the hardcover books. They are a fictional detective series by a foreign author who doesn’t sell his novels outside his country. I’ve only managed to read his books online, from no legitimate sources. I never dreamed I could ever own actual copies of his work, including his new releases. “Are you crying?!” Jazz looks horrified.

, Rachel grunts. I want to say "Why", but I don't want to risk sounding like a creep so I whatever her and go back to going through the rest of the shelf even though I'd done that a thousand times before. I drag my hands across the spines of the books; Kara Taylor's Prep School Confidential, Carol Wyer's The Secret Admirer, and Megan Goldin's The Night Swim. You would be subtle to call Rachel a crime-thriller addict - she's more of a crime freak. The Night Swim. There is a piece of paper sticking out of it. I pull it out of the book. Something is scribbled across it in Rachel's handwriting.

Zhedya is always confident. ***** Flashback The city was asleep. Zhedya moved through the darkness like a shadow, leaving Ian’s apartment to visit the two latest Thread Man crime scenes. He needed to see for himself. He studied every detail, his mind slipping into the killer’s, tracing the patterns, fitting the pieces together. There had to be a clue. Something everyone else had missed. His eyes narrowed. “Yeah, got you,” he whispered to the empty night. A red thread. In the crime scene photos of both victims, this same detail stood out. He carefully collected a loose strand into a small glass vial.

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.

And when I saw the full ashtray on the table, or the plates with the leftovers from dinner - not from yesterday, that must have been a few days longer - then the malaise just got worse. My fingers itched to clean up here. Okay, then I was just crazy about order, but that was still better than living in a mess like that. But unfortunately this was not my domicile. Although, what did "unfortunately" mean here? Luckily! I turned my head left and right, gazing across the kitchen just to distract myself from those cattle in the corner. When I leaned over to examine the magazine on the table, I realized I was sitting on something. Reluctantly I pulled it out - who knew what that was - and was more

“So the guy’s getting anonymous links to an underground darknet site.” “By guy you mean DC Harlow, right? The detective whose wife and child were burned alive.” “That’s right.” “Very Derek Raymond.” “What?” “The protagonist I mean, like the unnamed police officer who narrates all of Raymond’s Factory novels.” “Oh yeah, yes, that’s it exactly.”

My frustration mounted, fueling a growing sense of apprehension as the detective's next move remained uncertain. To my surprise, the detective reached into his bag and retrieved a book. My curiosity was piqued, and I wondered what significance this book held in relation to the ongoing investigation.
