Perfect Crime Chapter 1
It was late April 2022 when the Public Security Bureau of Lingchuan County in Yunzhou, Sichuan Province, received a strange letter. It was a tip-off, an anonymous report of a supposed murder. The letter claimed that back in 2009, a man named Zhao Yiming from Shuanghe Town, Lingchuan County, had been killed by his wife, Liu Mei, and that his body was dumped somewhere in a forested ravine or a cave nearby. The letter named another man, Chen Xiaobo, as Liu Mei’s accomplice. The police had never…-

Blood Diamonds Tallinn Chapter 1
Wings to the Unknown Emma stared at the flickering screen of her laptop, the glow casting shadows across her cramped Brooklyn apartment. It was past midnight, and the city outside hummed with its usual chaos—sirens wailing, neighbors arguing through thin walls. But her world had narrowed to one tab: a Facebook profile photo of Liina, grinning against a backdrop of medieval spires and snow-dusted forests. Tallinn, Estonia. A place she'd never heard of until a random comment on a travel subreddit led…-

The Pyramid Chapter 8
ISIS ON EARTH The pyramids pink in the morning light, just as they always are, to this day; but one of them ruddier than the others—the smallest and most beautiful of the three mighty ones, for it is sheathed in polished red granite from its pointed apex down to the mighty platform on which it stands. Ruddier also is the face of the sphinx, of mighty Harmachis, which guards the necropolis of Memphis, for the same queen who sheathed the pyramid of Menkaura in red granite has likewise caused the face…-

The Pyramid Chapter 7
BACK, FIVE THOUSAND YEARS Carlton felt that there was no need for haste. His first sense of panic had disappeared by this time. In its place had come a feeling of wonder comparatively reflective and calm. He was intensely alert to his physical sensations and his physical surroundings. This was lion-skin on which he reclined. Beneath it was the unmistakable feel of solid rock. "This is an inner chamber of the pyramid," he said softly. "Yes, my own." "And you are Queen Netokris?" "Most…-

The Pyramid Chapter 6
THROUGH GHOSTLY CORRIDORS He knew that they had not entered the Pyramid of Menkaura by the passageway used by tourists to-day. In that monograph of his there is a rough sketch which indicates, so far as possible, the route which he and "the woman" had followed—a succession of ghostly corridors, concerning which there is to-day no other record. Nothing will ever be done about it, most likely. The indications—Carlton admits it frankly enough—leave much to be desired. Neither geometry nor…-

The Pyramid Chapter 5
INTO THE DARK It may be said with perfect confidence that everything depends on a man's personality, on his temperament, anyway. The Society for Psychical Research, both in England and in America, has paid a good deal of attention to this phase of a man. The majority of people never see a ghost, never have even a ghostly feeling, except a sort of "creepiness," perhaps, when something or other occurs that they do not immediately understand. Yet, over against this truth is the other—that the annals…-

The Pyramid Chapter 4
NIGHT OF THE NEW MOON Dances, dinners, almost daily letters from Alice up the Nile—which he answered with some fervor, as well as with perfect promptness—and all the other ordinary features of the Egyptian season; yet Carlton could not get away from the feeling of mystery that clung close about him. For that matter, he didn’t try to. It was in keeping with his mood. Only in a roundabout way had he questioned Osman about the apparition he had seen on the steps of the mosque of Ibn-Tulun. It must…-

The Pyramid Chapter 3
THE STORY OF HAMID YUSEF One of the oddest characteristics of the human brain—so that rising young psychologist, George Carlton, had noticed more than once in the course of his life—is its facility as a long-distance jumper. A friend is about to tell you the dénouement of an alluring bit of scandal, or something like that. You are on the tiptoe of interest. You can’t wait for the next word. Then some trivial interruption occurs, and the whole thing is left in abeyance for months, possibly for…-

The Pyramid Chapter 2
AUNT RHODOPIS When Carlton had referred to himself as a “fledgling scientist,” he had done scant justice to himself. As a matter of fact, if he had been forced to earn his living he could have been doing so since a long time either in private practice or in connection with any of the large hospitals which make a specialty of nervous and mental diseases. He had always had a passion for such things, and if his money had prevented him from pursuing his profession with any degree of regularity, it…-
