Stories for readers who breathe better in the dark.
I write as V Le Chenz. I grew up on the working-class side of Greenwich, Connecticut, surrounded by a world of old money, private clubs, working families, and the sharp class lines between them. I knew a Greenwich that looked very different from the one people saw from outside.
I now live in the woods of New Hampshire and write dark fiction. My stories draw from true crime, old records, personal history, bad memories, faith, violence, class, family secrets, and the things people would rather leave buried.
Some are completely invented. Others start with something real. Those usually get worse.
I write thrillers and dark fiction about damaged people, bad decisions, buried secrets, and the moment somebody crosses a line they cannot uncross. No perfect heroes. No easy answers. No guarantee everyone makes it out.
Just stories with teeth and endings that leave a mark.
Read me with the lights on.

A fictionalized true-crime and occult thriller — coming soon
Greenwich looked perfect from the outside.
Mansions. Private clubs. Stone walls. Old family names.
Vinny DeCarlo grew up close enough to that world to see what money could protect—and far enough outside it to see what people were willing to bury.
He also grew up around murder.
Martha Moxley.
Matthew Margolies.
Two real deaths that became part of Greenwich history—and part of the memories Vinny eventually left behind. The novel uses both cases fictitiously and does not claim to solve either one.
After Vinny dies, his son Jake finds the journals.
What begins as his father’s scattered account of growing up in Greenwich turns into something else. Childhood fights. Family violence. Missing people. Old grudges. Deaths that never sat right. Strange digressions that seem pointless until they suddenly aren’t.
And beneath all of it is the little red house on Pemberwick Road.
The dirt cellar.
The Pember family.
Stories of ritual, curses, and occult work buried in the property long before Vinny was born.
Jake keeps reading.
Then he starts investigating.
The stories come back in a different order.
And worse.
What Vinny remembered as a child does not always match what Jake uncovers as a man. Some people were not who Vinny thought they were. Some deaths were not what they appeared to be. And some things buried in Greenwich did not stay buried.
Vinny da Guinea is a psychological, fictionalized true-crime, and occult thriller about fathers and sons, murder, memory, class, family secrets, and the dangerous distance between what happened and what a family decides to remember.
This is Greenwich without the postcards.
Old money. Cold blood. And something much older underneath it.
