THE LIPSTICK PRINT (Mystery Story)

THE LIPSTICK PRINT (Mystery Story)

Lester Wick road, Avenue 32, block 1, home to the Lady In Red. (Or should I say, Shantelle Gwenn.) Lately, the seductive detective has soared the newspapers, solving mysteries, defeating villains and cracking cases. Only thing is, no one knows her true identity, due to her disguise. Now, MI5 have contacted her on a new mission. Except this one is different. Will she be able to solve the mission? Or risk her life. This time, is her beloved MI5 really on her side? Will one measly lipstick print make a difference? And finally, will people ever accept her as childish Shantelle Gwenn, not sophisticated L.A.R? (Lady In Red) Can this mission bring her acceptance and maybe, well, love? Well, that's for me to know and you to find out.

Prologue

Tick. Tock.

Her coffee had gone cold by now, stone cold and motionless except for the occasional ripple when she banged her fist on the table with frustration.

Confused, she flicked through the top secret files she had stolen, for the millionth time. Frustration pumped through her veins, and agitated, she heaved herself off the sofa. A dim light flickered through the broken light bulb around her, highlighting the disastrous room. Papers and files were scattered across the coffee-stained carpet whilst bacteria clung to the peeling wallpaper. The sofa stank of Chinese Takeaway, now disintegrated to mould. A spider crawled across the leg of the table she had placed even more documents and files on. Empty coffee cups were placed on the shelves, reeking no end.

Never once had her flat looked like this, but this time, Shantelle didn't care. Agitated with the small amount of light pouring through the stingy room, she banged her fist on the wall. This time, the light flickered off, before flickering on even brighter, highlighting the neglected state of her living room.

That's not what caught her eye though. Oh no. But there on a file sheet lay a single, faint lipstick stain.
