***
A murder in Kensington, Johannesburg, sets undertaker Agnes Fane on a dangerous path of discovery in Silver Murder, a riveting cozy mystery.
When Camillo Rosser, the local barber, is found dead under bizarre circumstances, the police dismiss it as an unfortunate accident. Agnes isn’t convinced. Why was his body painted silver? What was he hiding? Determined to find answers, Agnes partners with Dr. Reitz, a skeptical but resourceful ally.
Their investigation takes them deep into Johannesburg’s secrets, uncovering a smuggling ring and revealing tensions that Camillo’s charm hid all too well. Each clue Agnes uncovers brings her closer to exposing the truth—but also puts her directly in the killer’s crosshairs.
Will Agnes solve the mystery before it’s too late? Or will the murderer ensure that Camillo’s secrets—and Agnes—are buried for good?
Fans of historical mysteries with intelligent, fearless heroines will fall in love with Silver Murder.
About the new story…
Hi my dear readers
Welcome to this brand new story.
Book Description: Undercurrents of Deception
Secrets always rise to the surface.
Sadie thought her life was simple-school, lifeguarding, and navigating the peculiar dynamics of her small family. But when the brooding, enigmatic Miles from the notorious Harlow family begins shadowing her every move, Sadie’s world unravels. A cryptic note, hidden truths, and whispers of a father she’s never known pull her into a web of lies she can’t escape.
As Sadie and Miles delve into their families’ tangled pasts, they uncover a shocking connection that could shatter everything they thought they knew. The closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous their journey becomes. Forbidden romance sparks between them, but secrets have a way of drowning even the strongest bonds.
When betrayal threatens to tear them apart, Sadie must decide: protect the family that raised her or risk everything to uncover the truth about who she really is.
In Undercurrents of Deception, love and loyalty collide with mystery and danger. Perfect for fans of suspenseful young adult romance with a hint of danger and forbidden desire, this Wattpad serial will leave you gasping for more at the end of every episode.
Dive in-if you dare.

HELP ME NAME THE CHARACTERS!
I have the following characters in mind:
Protagonist: A sweet, brave high school girl (unnamed for now) who lives with her “dad” and “brother” (both of whom are not biologically related to her). She’s a school lifeguard with a penchant for adventure.
Possible love interest: The mysterious bad boy from the rich, infamous family, who lives in a mansion with only the servants. His family has a complicated past, including hidden connections to the MC’s family.
Her father figure: A caring but secretive man who raised her as his own.
Her brother figure: Protective, but may know more than he lets on about their true family situation.
The story will come together in possibly 14 episodes of roughly 1300 words.
Even though I have a rough idea about the story, it would be fun to write it with your input, so please feel free to share as well go.
The story will be updated to Wattpad every week and here on the blog as part of the #BAS Subscriptions I have set up here on my website.
Until the 1st episode
