Hi everyone ~
Here are the next 8 sentences in my upcoming romantic thriller, Stutter Creek. It is slated for release on June 1, 2013
Following her father’s death and the collapse of her marriage, Beth retreats to the family cabin at Stutter Creek where she stumbles across the path of a serial killer and winds up fighting to stay alive.
Last week, while on her way to work the evening shift at the Water House Bar & Grill, Mandy spied a small boy standing beside the road. She immediately slowed down to pull over and check on him. This is where we pick up the story:
The setting sun made the trees appear as
black-paper cutouts in a landscape collage.

After checking her mirrors to make sure no one was
behind her, Mandy pressed the button to lower the passenger-side window.
It
was almost all the way down when a man yanked open the door and exploded into
her world like a tornado into a trailer park.
Her hand flew to the gearshift, but she couldn’t engage it. Even as her flight instinct kicked in, part
of her mind was telling her this was almost certainly the same strange guy who
had requested her section at the restaurant the night before. His eyes had seemed to follow her all around
the crowded dining room, and his oily stench had made him stand out like a spot
of mold on white linen.
