The catalogue, grouped the way readers look for things: what you can start without an account, what has a case to solve, what is set at work, and what is set in the past. Every collection is built from the stories themselves, so it changes as the catalogue does.
Open any of these and start reading immediately — no email, no password, nothing to fill in. You play the opening for free and decide afterwards whether to make an account, and if you do, the story you already started comes with you. Everything here is rated Everyone or Teen and costs nothing to begin.
24 stories
Stories built around a real case: a culprit who exists before you start looking, evidence you can actually gather in the wrong order, and an accusation you can get wrong. The clues are placed, not generated as you go, so the answer is the same one whether you find it in chapter three or chapter eight.
15 stories
Procedurals, in the plain sense: people doing a job, with the pressure coming from rosters, paperwork, chains of command and the thing that goes wrong at three in the morning. Hospitals, ports, platforms, courtrooms. The stakes are what the job costs the person doing it.
6 stories
Period stories where the constraints are the point — what could be known, how fast word travelled, who was allowed to ask. Ledgers, telegrams, guild rules and weather that closes a route for four months. The research shows without ever becoming the subject.
