This is my first book(aside from short stories), so I hope you enjoy! The story starts getting exciting in chapter 2.

There is police tape surrounding the back of the building, and I quickly see why. The man from last night is lying on the ground. But it's a woman. 

The hood has fallen off her face, revealing long golden blond hair. Then I notice what's on the wall above her. I almost throw up in disgust. 

There is a big red paw print on the wall that looks as if it's been painted with... blood. 
(Blood has italics in the book so it's more dramatic.)

When the sweet innocence of the Scott family clashes against criminal forces more dangerous than they ever imagined, Melody is all too aware that a mom's got to do what a mom's got to do to protect her family.
