Description: [edit] [history]

Detective Lana Walker, her partner Gabriel Grant, and her brother Ethan are the last line of defense for a city rotten to the core. Volare City, whose name means to soar, is being eaten alive by the desperation of the people who inhabit it.The dead and missing leave behind breadcrumbs for her to find. Like red threads of fate, Lana's life becomes entwined with those she seeks to either save or capture. From an enigmatic cult leader to a missing persons case, and finally, to a serial killer, both her troubled psyche and familial bonds will be put to the test time and time again.Broken down beyond the strong face she puts on, she will have to find herself again. To overcome her mother's disapproval of her choice to step off the beaten path and come to terms with her identity as a woman of Asian and Caucasian descent, Lana will have to rise from the ashes and become the person she was always meant to be.In this story, faith, family, and resilience come hand in hand, and the age-old questions of why we keep fighting and what it means to be human are explored.

What to expect:

- A deep and introspective journey in trying to do the right thing in a thankless situation.

- An emphasis on character development, profiling, and investigation. Action scenes will be few and far between.

- Chapters between 2,000-3,200 words.
