Deadline: 4 January 2012
The life of a private investigator is boring more often than it is exciting—tracking debtors, tailing cheating spouses, and long hours of surveillance do not add up to a sizzling life of mystery and romance.
But every now and then there comes a case that takes all a good PI has to offer and demands still more. A case that requires not just time and effort, but sliding in to another skin to find that clue or witness that will break the case. How far will a PI go to do his job; how high will he climb, how low will he sink?
Give us your stories of private investigators willing to don any guise to break the case.
THE DETAILS:
* Deadline is January 4TH
* Stories should be approx 10,000-20,000 words in length (a little longer or shorter is fine).
* Stories must have a happily ever after end.
* Any genre is acceptable; stories may be contemporary, paranormal, fantasy, sci-fi, etc. There must be a strong element of a private investigator going undercover, but be as creative as you like in executing that theme. We are looking for fun, unique spins on this popular genre.

* Payment is $150.00, electronic copies, and two copies of the print book.
