"Rae"

My current focus, along with BEFORE THE DAWN, is the completion of all those stories that I started but for some reason abandoned.  There are any number of reasons why they were abandoned; I lost the plot line, or I lost interest in the story, or I got distracted by another project and never got back.

So I'm focusing on getting those abandoned stories completed...and there are a fair number of them.

The one I've recently started is titled "Rae".  Set in the year 2200, it centers on EarthGov Security Special Agent Kevin Martin and his partner, Probationary Agent Rachael (Rae) Mercer. Assigned to investigate a murder on a colony world, they soon find there's much more to it...especially when Kevin is accused of nearly beating Rae to death, an act he has no memory of committing.
