Without A Clue . . .

For about a month and a half now, I have been working on my newest book, titled: Without A Clue . . .
I am currently at around 21,000 words and 100 pages in. So, being this far in, I have decided that I will allow you to preview the prologue of it.
Here it is!

Prologue

It was a dark and stormy night . . .

That is probably the most famous opening to any mystery novel ever. And that is how I plan to open this one.

There seems to be something about dark and stormy nights that makes one want to commit a crime. What it is, I’m not sure. Could it be the eeriness in the air that gives an evil atmosphere? Could it be that since rain is relaxing, the thief is more steady?

Whatever the reason, it is a great opening.

So Ladies and Gentlemen . . . .

It Was A Dark And Stormy Night . . . .

So, there you have it. The prologue of "Without a Clue . . ."
It is a mystery novel and a humor novel that the whole family can read together.
I am planning on having it be about 350 to 400 pages. Here is a small synopsis: Without a Clue . . . is the story of two nitwit detectives who are hired to investigate the robbery of an expensive necklace, little do they know, the more they dig into the mansion, the more and more trouble they find.
Don't worry, I'm still working on "The Great Toy War!", It's being edited and the cover is in the process of being created.
So, thank you for reading and feel free to check out past posts including The Backstage Story, and the preview of "The Great Toy War"
