I'd like to enter a contest, so about two weeks would be appreciated.
Gyikhu, I would read it but I have one I am reading (finished today) and one waiting. I will read yours if you like and if you can wait a few days. Looks like I can read and finish the one I have pretty quickly.I write crime so perhaps I can help.

Hi Diana, I'd be grateful if you could help me and read my story. If you tell me your email address and the format you prefer, I'll send it over to you. I'm glad about any ideas or critics. Few days are definitely no problem.
Hi Amber,
here is the pitch. Feel free to let me know if you're interested to read.
When the dead body is found on a rainy night, the police have no clues to pursue. The girl was blond, pretty and young, the typical girl-next-door with no enemies. After a few days of fruitless questioning, the investigation takes an unexpected turn as the traces lead to an exclusive strip club. Detective Russell Kane is confronted with opposition, envy and greed, beautiful women with low morals, entertaining wealthy men.
The victims bring back the image of his dead partner, and the case becomes a torture for Russell. Even so when he’s forced to spend more and more time in the club. Every night he sees Ginger, a lush but very distant stripper, on stage, he falls under her allure. Once he finds out that the woman receives anonymous threatening messages, he can’t avoid meeting her in person.
He and she. Two people who couldn’t be more different are involved in a series of murder. They both need to face their flaws and overcome them. They both need to open up and forget. They both need to survive.
But how do you stop a killer who blends into the dark and makes no mistake? How do you hinder another murder if you’re always one step behind?
Russell Kane has to figure it out if he doesn’t want the past to repeat and to let another woman die. Someone who matters.
I'm seriously into this book. E-mail is elessarelanoure@hotmail.com and I prefer epub, if possible and if not, pdf works well too.

sent it over to you. Thanks!
GyikhuCan you email it to me as an attachment in Word 97? You can change it into that before you send it. I find that is the easiest program to put comments into. I like to go through books bit by bit and make the comments in the places they're relevant to. If you can't do Word 2003-97, perhaps a later version. If it' Word 2013, I have to have it unlocked and enabled so I can work on the script.

There can't be space in there. Is it one word?
