A private investigator who thinks she’s chasing a thief realizes that her case may be linked to her own uncanny past, and a truth she may not be ready to face.

Genre: Mystery

 

Excerpt:
She didn’t let me into her house, but she did give me the trash bag with the broken shards of the mirror. And she did agree to take a picture of the mirror’s remnants with my camera. (She frowned when Iteased her not to steal it.) My phone had a better lens than that old camera, but this wasn’t the first time someone didn’t let me in somewhere, but did agree to take pictures for me.

I nodded to myself as I reviewed the pictures. I would be able to put the shards back together again. And compare them to the other mirrors I’d reassembled.  I could already guess what I would find.

 

What’s the Word (that inspired the story)?
Adventitious:
1) Associated with something by chance rather than as an integral part
2) Botany, Zoology. Appearing in an abnormal or unusual position or place, as a root.

Episode Art Description: Digital drawing. A woman seen from the left, crouching and picking up a shard of glass. She wears a knee-length coat which flares down from the waist. More shards of glass lie on the floor. She holds a small notebook in her left hand, and wears a ring with a stone on her right hand. At top left, glass shatters outward from left to right above her head. On the wall or surface behind are faint elemental symbols.
