MD is the author of The Hidden Corridor and The Hidden Corridor-The Darkwell Files, alongside the adult series The Gavel and standalone novels including Frank and TIGER. Together, these works form a connected body of fiction exploring choice, consequence, and the quiet mechanisms that shape human behaviour under pressure.
Across all formats, MD’s writing is informed by long-term observation of how systems—legal, institutional, technological, and social—fail not through malice, but through procedure, inertia, and misplaced certainty.
The stories focus less on villains and more on moments where responsibility becomes diluted, decisions are justified after the fact, and harm is allowed to occur because it follows the rules.
The Hidden Corridor is an interactive Choose Your Own Adventure–style series that places the reader directly inside the story. Written for younger readers but grounded in serious themes, the books challenge the idea of safe curiosity, asking readers to navigate spaces that respond to observation, intention, and risk. Each path is shaped by the reader’s decisions, reinforcing the idea that choice is never neutral—and that some outcomes cannot be undone.
For adult audiences, The Hidden Corridor-The Darkwell Files adopts a more restrained and unsettling approach. Each novel is presented as a reconstructed case: a single incident mismanaged, misunderstood, and ultimately absorbed by the systems meant to contain it. Told through reports, testimony, and fragmented records, the series focuses less on spectacle and more on how rational processes quietly enable irreversible outcomes. While the entities encountered are extraordinary, the true tension lies in human judgement, institutional language, and procedural momentum.
That same tension carries into The Gavel, which examines justice after the point of institutional failure—when formal systems are seen as no longer capable of protecting the vulnerable. Rather than offering catharsis, the series interrogates escalation, moral certainty, and the cost of taking accountability into one’s own hands.
MD’s standalone novels continue these thematic explorations in different registers. Frank explores intimacy, trust, and technological dependence, tracing how perceived companionship and rational decision-making can slide into obsession and loss. TIGER examines environmental collapse and bureaucratic detachment, focusing on how compliance frameworks and political convenience can erase responsibility while maintaining the appearance of order.
Whether interactive or linear, MD’s fiction prioritises atmosphere, moral tension, and psychological realism—favouring implication over explanation and unease over resolution.
Each story invites readers to step across a threshold where intention, control, and accountability begin to blur, and to consider not just what they would do, but what they would allow.

The Darkwell Files is an adult psychological horror, action, and thriller series presented as a collection of classified records, suppressed footage, and reconstructed case files...
Drawn to a remote estate shrouded in storms and secrecy, you step across a threshold you cannot easily leave. Corridors twist. Laboratories lie abandoned. Strange systems hum with failing power. Something was created here — and it may not be finished with you.
Your investigation has led you to a remote castle perched above a hostile landscape — a place ruled by tradition, silence, and rules that were never meant to be questioned. Here, doors are locked for a reason. Invitations matter. And once night falls, the castle...
Your investigation has led you into the desert — to a buried site that was never meant to be reopened. Beneath the sand lies a structure designed to endure disturbance, time, and memory itself.
They don’t announce themselves with alarms or apologies. They don’t arrive as singular, dramatic events. Instead, they settle into place through procedure—through forms completed correctly, meetings minuted accurately, and decisions deferred in ways that feel reasonable at the time.
No one breaks the rules.
No one behaves monstrously.
And yet, harm occurs.
This is the kind of failure that rarely attracts accountability, because it doesn’t resemble what we’ve been taught...
