    About this ebook

    Detective Harris is a private detective who is out of luck and out of cash. When a woman walks into his office in tears, he decides to take a gamble on what he assumes is an open and shut case. What he doesn't realize is that nothing about this case is normal.

    This short story was a semi-finalist in The Zharmae Publishing Press’ Spring 2012 Writer’s Competition.
