Summary:

MISSING
Name: Sheila Anne Rhodes
Age: 22
Height: 5ft 3in

Last seen at Fistral Beach wearing an orange bikini. If found, please contact us through any of the numbers listed below.

Someone goes missing at a beach in Newquay and apart from the grieving family members, nobody is really worried. After all, people keep disappearing like that throughout the year, right? Maybe Sheila's father or husband has unknowingly made an enemy somewhere. Newquay is still safe anyway.

That is what Chris Stevens and his steady girlfriend, Cheryl Willis, think as they head off to Cheryl's beach house for a vacation with a few other friends. Everybody is really looking forward for the trip-- it seems to be a breath of fresh air in each of their busy lives.

But what happens when the number of disappearances begins to increase with no trace of any of the victims? And if that's not bad enough, here's what seems to be a bigger problem. Cheryl has unwisely invited Chris's ex- girlfriend Daisy Joe to the trip and to Chris's horror, she agrees to come. So which new disaster is waiting to happen when Daisy and Chris come face-to-face again? Have they really moved on enough?

To top it all, there is a third problem too. Daisy and Chris may have both moved on with Cheryl Willis and Emil Turner-- both well known actors who take around a lot of publicity. So how is being with such famous Muggles a wise idea, when the wizarding world risks its exposure with every wrong step that either of them might take?

In this sequel to Killer Instincts, sit back and wear your seat belts as I take you through a ride of love, lust, jealousy and lies with a promise to keep you on your toes through every moment of it. Though the story is mainly about my own characters, it is set in the wizarding world in the era of the trio.

Summary: BREAKING NEWS: Major Breakthrough In The Blood and Roses Case

Rose Weasley, newly appointed member of the Magical Law Enforcement Office and niece of Harry Potter, is now in custody after being arrested on suspicion of murdering her cousin, Dominique Wood (née Weasley). Miss Weasley’s wand was found at the scene, clearly indicating that it had been used to perform three Killing Curses on her cousin, cousin-in-law, and their three-year-old child, Ophélie. Auror Scorpius Malfoy has confirmed that an investigation is underway, although neither Auror Potter nor the rest of the Weasley-Potter family is available for comment.
