A Gen X Mystery Short

When Detective Dane Benson answers a late-night call from Marty, the bartender who raised him like family, he isn’t expecting to find a terrified young woman hiding in the shadows of a smokehouse. Bruised, trembling, and refusing to share more than her first name—Evie—she carries secrets that point to something darker in the woods beyond Sunset Landing.

Haunted by her halting words and the fear etched in her eyes, Dane makes a choice that blurs the line between duty and loyalty. He brings her to the safest place he knows—his mother’s refuge, Sunset Homestead, a haven for abused women and children. But keeping Evie hidden may be more dangerous than he realizes.

Perfect for fans of small-town mysteries, emotional suspense, and stories where trust is hard-won and danger lurks in unexpected places, this is the beginning of a journey that will test how far one man will go to protect the vulnerable—and how much one girl can endure to reclaim her voice.
