A true story for the womag market. Not ever so exciting but maybe it'll be seen as one of those ones people can relate to. Or maybe it's just shite. You be the judge. 

It's the first 2,800 words. I know that's a biggish chunk by WW standards, so you don't need to print all of it. It's a 2-strand crime novel. There's the Investigation, and then there's an alternating Post Mortem strand, which exposes the backstories behind some of the marks/scars on the body of the victim. An agent has just requested the 'full' and I have 4 weeks to get it up to scratch! 

Things begin to unravel between the children and their father, as they await their mother's return. Then the minister of their local church arrives, with bad news.
