THE LISTING
Removed is not remembered
A page can disappear without carrying its reports, warnings or evidence into the next version of the same product.

That Bloody Parcel
The listing is still live. The buyer isn't.
Four deaths. Four products. One fictional marketplace that insists it sold none of them.
By J.B. Ashford · Available in English on
The story
An unsafe product disappears. Its history disappears with it.
After a telescopic ladder folds beneath an electrician, Luc De Peyrac recognises more than a tragic accident. In the same week, a fire kills a child, a toddler chokes on a loose magnet and a woman dies after using a beauty product whose label concealed a known allergen.
Each product was bought through TreLLiVane, the world's dominant fictional online marketplace. Each had been reported before. Each had supposedly been removed. Yet the same photographs, spelling mistakes, model numbers and conformity claims keep returning beneath new sellers and new listing identities.
Using H.UN.T—Hunting Unsafe Tech—Luc follows the warnings that disappeared when the pages did. To persuade the police and the Crown Prosecution Service to look again, he must prove not merely that dangerous products were sold, but that a corporation learned how to make responsibility vanish.
The question behind the thriller
What happens when every system sees a fragment—and nobody owns the whole warning?
That Bloody Parcel turns the silence around unsafe online products into a crime story. A listing is removed, a seller name changes, the photographs return and the product's safety history is left behind.
THE MARKETPLACE
Responsibility becomes a maze
Seller, fulfilment, payment, advertising and platform systems each hold part of the transaction while the buyer faces one seamless experience.
THE INVESTIGATION
Silence leaves a pattern
Luc does not treat a listing signal as proof. He captures the evidence, connects repeated identities and asks who had the complete picture.
Fictional world, urgent questions
A product-safety thriller—not an allegation against a real marketplace
TreLLiVane is fictional. Its companies, staff, sellers, listings, deaths and alleged conduct are invented for the novel. The story does not depict or accuse Amazon or any other real marketplace.
The anxiety behind the fiction is recognisable: what should happen when potentially unsafe products are reported, removed and then appear again? Who preserves the warning? Who joins the evidence across separate systems? And what does meaningful marketplace accountability look like before another buyer is harmed?
That Bloody Parcel asks those questions through Luc De Peyrac's investigation while keeping evidence, uncertainty and human review at the centre of the story.
Coming 31 October 2026
When the warning vanishes, Luc follows what remains.
The English paperback and Kindle edition will be released on 31 October 2026.
