This is a short story. This short story was an assignment I had to do for a class and thought it would make a good first story to share- to get an idea of what my writing is like. The class assignment was to pick an image and write about it. I chose the image on the cover-a rainy day by a lake. I hope you enjoy.

In a lakeside town where shapeshifters roam the shadows, Mara Philips, a rogue detective, must find a missing girl. But when clues lead her down a path of deadly desire and deception, she's forced to face her own demons in a race against the Bloodmoon. ***** Waking up naked on the beach isn't too off-brand for Mara Philips, considering the opened bottle of whiskey not far away. Recently forced to surrender her detective badge, she's been having a rough couple weeks. But blacking out the same night the neighbor's dog dies? A little sus. Something's amiss along the lakeshore and Mara discovers the dog might not be the only victim. Fliers for missing teenage girls are posted all over town and a mother desperate for answers begs the rogue detective to take her case. With the help of a new flame, Mara investigates the shadows of her rural town where shapeshifters roam and a government agency hunts them down. But when clues lead her on a path of deadly desire and deception, she'll be forced to face her own demons before they consume her in a race against the looming Bloodmoon.
