Charlotte James is smart. She knows that people generally aren't scared of the actual dark; they're scared of what's in it. She knows because she's spent years chasing the things in your closet down. But that changed when she got a job as medical examiner in the small town of Thornbrook, Ireland. She's even got a boyfriend! Maybe, just maybe, she'll finally be able to ignore what goes bump in the night.
Then again, maybe not.
As with many rookie writers, I'm only looking to get better, so any feedback on how I can improve would be much appreciated. Also, I do go back and rewrite bits of chapters to better suit the story as a whole, so be aware that things will change. Thanks for reading!

Maybe

Agent Provocateur
Okay, so I am doing something a little different. Actually 2 something's different. Normally I don't post my works until I have completed them. There is nothing I hate more than reading a really good story that just stops. πΏ However, I am having trouble with motivation with this one, so I am hoping that putting it out here will give me that impetus. The second thing is I wrote it in dual narrative. Usually I write in omniscient or first person, but I thought I would give this a try, switching between Lucas and Charlotte. Anyway, I hope both work to my advantage. Please enjoy. Cheers!!Complete
