Small Town Detective

The adventure of a modern day detective turned aristocrat

Ari Kang, a sharp-witted detective from modern-day Korea, is renowned for her unrelenting pursuit of justice. With a mind rivaling Sherlock Holmes, she navigates the labyrinth of crime with an uncanny ability to unravel the most complex mysteries. But when a frustrating cold case leads her to seek solace in an old detective novel, fate plays a cruel joke—she wakes up inside its pages. Now trapped in the body of Lady Evelyne, the fallen daughter of a disgraced duke, she finds herself in a world of Victorian-style aristocracy, ruthless power plays, and a society where murder is disguised behind silken smiles. To make matters worse, she’s no longer just an observer—her original character was meant to die, serving as nothing more than a footnote in the book’s protagonist’s journey. Refusing to accept her fate, Evelyne sets out to rewrite the narrative, using her detective instincts to navigate the treacherous halls of nobility. But her investigations draw the attention of an enigmatic prince—the fifth in line to the throne—whose golden eyes hold secrets as deep as her own. As alliances shift and hidden enemies lurk in the shadows, Evelyne must untangle a web of conspiracies, solve murders that weren’t meant to happen, and uncover the truth behind her own family’s tragic downfall. But one question looms over her: if this is a book, can she ever escape? And if she does… does she even want to? A thrilling blend of mystery, intrigue, and slow-burning romance, The Adventures of a Modern-Day Detective Turned Aristocat is a tale where the detective becomes both the hunter and the hunted in a world where survival depends on wit, charm, and a well-placed deduction.

Tiga puluh sembilan tahun kemudian, sebuah film yang diadaptasi dari kasus tersebut, “The Great Heist of Jin City,” menjadi hit box office, menarik perhatian ahli patologi forensik Ye Huairui. Sebulan kemudian, Ye Huairui pindah ke sebuah vila tua, hanya untuk mengetahui bahwa itu dulunya adalah kediaman Yin Jiaming. ==== Pada tengah malam, setelah badai petir, Ye Huairui menemukan sebaris tulisan di mejanya: “Siapa kau!!?” Ye Huairui berpikir, apakah tempat ini berhantu? Dia menulis balasan: “Entah kau hantu, atau kau pembunuhnya.” Pesan di meja berubah menjadi: "Aku bukan hantu, dan aku juga bukan pembunuh! Aku tidak membunuh siapa pun!!" Ye Huairui: … Hubungan luar biasa lintas waktu dan ruang mempertemukan dua orang yang terpisah tiga puluh sembilan tahun di rumah tua misterius itu. Maka dimulailah perjalanan investigasi lintas waktu. “Yin Jiaming telah dizalimi; pelaku sebenarnya masih bebas.” Dengan bantuan seorang ahli patologi forensik jenius dari tiga puluh sembilan tahun di masa depan, dapatkah Yin Jiaming membuktikan ketidakbersalahannya dan menulis ulang nasib buruknya? ==== Kebenaran tidak akan diubah, hanya dikubur. Kisah cinta melampaui ruang dan waktu tentang kematian dan penebusan, dan pada akhirnya, aku akan menggenggam tanganmu erat. ==== Kata-kata pertama yang diucapkan Yin Jiaming kepada Ye Huairui adalah: “Ruirui, kemarilah peluk aku.” Ye Huairui merentangkan tangannya: “Kemarilah. Jika kau tidak bisa memelukku, berarti kau pengecut.”

No small lives

Even seemingly quiet lives hold deep, dramatic stories Adelani has always been the kind of woman people overlook-a quiet, conservative church girl, dutiful and measured. But beneath her composed exterior lies a woman shaped by displacement, heartbreak, and a hidden wild streak she dares not name. After years of moving between cities in Nigeria, she has finally settled in Norwich, UK, where she is still finding her footing. Yet, home is a slippery thing when you carry the weight of expectation on your shoulders. When her paths crossed again with Alexander an older, professor from her time in university - her world tilts. He is unlike anyone she expected to love, and their attraction is immediate, undeniable. But love is never simple, especially when ghosts of the past refuse to be buried. A familiar name reappears-Dayo, the Nigerian ex who once shattered her trust. And with it, a triangle of longing, loyalty, and unresolved history begins to take shape. As Adelani navigates love, family, and the cultural pressures of being a Nigerian woman who dares to want something different, she harbors a truth that defies expectation: she does not want children. It is a choice that shocks those around her-a quiet rebellion against tradition, against the life that was supposed to be hers. But the past has its own way of creeping back, and when a secret side of her life comes to light, everything she has carefully built is at risk of unraveling. Bold yet intimate, *No Small Lives* is a deeply personal exploration of identity, love, and the quiet revolutions that shape us. Because even the quietest lives carry storms within them-and no life is ever truly small.
