Times are tough in the newspaper business these days. 

In between staff cuts, furloughs and declining advertising dollars, Jubilant Falls Journal-Gazette editor Addison McIntyre hasn’t got time to listen when candidate Rick Starrett claims his opponent Virginia Ferguson ran a dirty state senate campaign.

Short on staff, time and patience, she can’t waste time on sore losers—then Virginia Ferguson is shot. As she dies, names Rick Starrett as the man who pulled the trigger. 

That gets Addison’s attention.

To further complicate things, Kay Henning, the wife of reporter Marcus Henning, has come up missing and believed to be in danger.  Did she leave of her own accord or was she kidnapped?

Is there something that ties these two events together? Who’s telling the truth? And who is telling what could be lethal little lies?

"Ahhh!!!" The man's body falls to the floor limp and I fall to the floor out of terror, "Why are you screaming? I saved you from being raped." I look at the man who is holding a gun with a little smile on his face. He holds the gun up to my head and I start crying, "P-Please, p-please don't do this. I-I won't tell anybody." He bends down and I whimper, "I don't think I can let you go. What happened you run and tell in the next three days? You've already seen my face and heard my voice." I shake my head, "I swear I won't tell anybody! I-I don't know anybody!" He looks at me up and down, "I'll give you two choices. I kill you now or you come with me. You can keep me entertained for a while." €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€ Lyric Dime is a twenty-one year old loner who works in a top tier casino.

3 parts Complete
Penny Johnson, middle-aged, recently licensed lawyer, has a small but growing general law practice in her hometown, Midvale Corners. From her two room office above Max's Deli on Main Street, she and her legal assistant, Althea Riversmith, take most problems that come in the door, referring out those too complex for their resources. When Horace Appleworth, local contractor, calls her to represent him for the murder of Dick, the town's City Manager, her first thought is to send him on to the best criminal attorney in the area. Horace will have none of it, he wants Penny. Penny, knowing that the prosecutor, up for re-election, wants a quick conviction, the police are convinced they have their man so won't look further and the Judge doesn't like the disruption of a high profile case in his court room, reluctantly agrees to represent Horace. The evidence against Horace is overwhelming; Horace admits he was at the murder scene but claims Dick was alive when he left, his fingerprints are there, he was seen on the surveillance camera, Dick's killer and Horace are left handed, the murder weapon, a small antique pistol is registered to Horace, no one saw him walk home and he said to all who would listen that he was tired of paying bribes to Dick to get the town's construction contracts. Penny is ably assisted by Althea and the Midvale Corners Investigative and Literary Society, a group of amateur detectives who like to solve puzzles. They take on the task of proving Horace innocent.

"How do you feel now, Morgan?" She says, more pointing something out than asking a question. She grabs hold of my wrists and tightens them. If I could see properly I could swear I see them turn purple. "I could beat you to the bone, right here, right now, till you die from your injuries. But, I won't. You will die. Maybe not today, maybe not in a month, but you will." Well, obviously I'm going to die. Humans don't live forever. "Wonder why?" "No, and I really don't care." She answers anyway. "Because we have the power, the people, and the weapons to do it. Face it, you're defenseless against us." I feel some blood flooding my mouth, so I, being a perfectly nice person, spit it in her face. That doesn't faze her at all. "I have the strength and intelligence, something you clearly don't have. Whatever y'all do to me, it won't break me. I will put up a hell of a fight before losing. I will fight, and I will win." I turn over and look at her fellow companions. "Even if I die doing it." "Is that a risk you're willing to take?" ____________________________________ 17 year old Morgan Peters is an average girl living life.

Jesus Christ, she is losing too much blood. We are losing her and the baby... ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My eyes continued to open and close as the doctor tried everything in his power to resuscitate me. I continued to stare at the hospital lights which flashed in my eyes. See I never thought I would fall for him. I never thought I would be here fighting for my life and I never thought I would lose my child. He was the last person I saw before taking what appeared to be my last and final moments. I never thought I would have to pick between fame- ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Suddenly he stopped moving when he heard what appeared to be footsteps following his last and final movement. In his last moments, he thought about me. I was his first true love. As he turned around he watched as the gun was aimed directly at his head. The man who stood before him didn't appear like any ordinary man. He gave him a sinister smile as he continued to look him straight in his eyes. Who are you he asked the person? Karma he replied. This is for what you did to them because of you he might not even survive. This is for picking love over--- The person's eyes widened as he prepared himself to eject each clip into his target's head. Within a couple of minutes, the gun went off. Blood splattered everywhere. All that remained was the victim's body with a gunshot wound to the head. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gifted: Or love but wait let's go back to when it all started... This is my written testimony to: --------- FA M E OR LOVE ----------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Warning ⚠️ : The storyline was geared towards a mature audience and concentrates on diversity and real-life issues that people endure while pursuing fame and love...
