Children under the age of 13 are slowly being kidnapped with no warning, threats, or demands, and then showing up dead in seemingly random places around the City of New York. The police are so desperate they turn to the only man they know of who might have a chance of finding the Shadow, ex-cop Dastardious Hollow. A man currently serving time for murder.
With really no interest what-so-ever in the case, Hollow accepts just so he can have the please of finding the Shadow before his rival, Mulligan, does, and for the chance of turning down the promotion Mulligan has so eagerly sought for six long years. The one he sought when he arrested Dastardious for murder.
With the clock ticking before the Police Commissioner gets tired of him and sends him back to prison, will Dastardious find the Shadow before Mulligan? Even with help how can you find someone who never leaves a clue?
The above is a summery I wrote for my latest book, Of Lights and Shadows, to be published in June. It's still a bit of a work in progress, I'm not too sure about the content of it. Not sure if it's right, enough, too much, or what. I've had some advice but I'm still not sure.
The book I'm still writing. I've got the end to work on, but to get to the end I have to edit the beginning because the beginning leaves no room for an ending. It will just continue to go on and on until it fizzles with nothing. So I'm working on that. Not working really really hard at it, I'm a bit lazy and also have other stuff on my plate. Though that's no excuse considering the amount of time I spend on the computer should be enough to finish the rest of the edit in a day. But let's move on from there, I'm making myself feel guilty and I don't want to do that.
Um, what else? I think I should really start advertising this blog to people who are interested in what I have to say rather than just leaving it to chance that someone will come along who'll like it. Unfortunately I don't really know where to advertise my blog, and it's also doing something I don't like doing: going out there. It's terrifying. I prefer to stay inside away from having to do anything like that. But it's my own fault for starting to publish, I have to take that what comes with it.
Any suggestions of where I could advertise this blog and my story and whatnot would be greatly appreciated. I worked on the comments and now people can post them, I did that a little while ago but didn't end up saying, I don't think.
