Reality Check: Sometimes One Dose Isn't Enough

Reality Check takes you down the road of a woman who feels like all the odds are against her. Suzanne Tucker, the main character, is unable to bear children, her marriage is falling apart and she is unsatisfied in the current position she holds at her job. She feels like God has failed her so she decides to take matters into her own hands to have the good life she feels she deserves. She starts with her job. Being a print journalist, all she has to do is showcase her talents for others to see and what better stage to present it on than the internet. Suzanne starts an anonymous blog to report the real news about the local celebrities but is it really the 'real news' she's blogging about or is she using her internet stage to quench the desires of her own personal vengefulness against others?

Meanwhile, the tragic death of Tasha Everett, a high school valedictorian and community favorite, has the homicide detectives in a whirlwind. With the primary elections looming, the Mayor wants the responsible party for Tasha's death brought to justice but circumstancial evidence and no leads has the detectives at a standstill. Will the lack of a motive cause someone to get away with murdering the county's most heartfelt success story?

Another snipplet of "Reality Check"

Now that the blog case was over, Detective McIntyre refocused her attention on real crimes, particularly the Everett case. Every teenage girl had a cell phone but Tasha’s was not at the scene of the crime. It did not take long before Detective McIntyre found out who Tasha’s cellular carrier was and had them provide a copy of Tasha’s last call the night of her murder. Surprisingly, the call was not to 911 but to a local number in the Billups County area.

“Hello?”

Detective McIntyre smiled at the face behind the screen door. It was of a young light-skinned girl around the same age as Tasha.

“Hello. I’m Detective McIntyre.” Detective McIntyre flashed her badge. “I’m looking for Lisa Pitts.”

“I’m she.”

“I’d like to talk to you about Tasha Everett.”

The immediate change in expression on Lisa’s face let Detective McIntyre know she was on the right track.

“Come on in.”

Detective McIntyre walked into the nicely furnished apartment and looked around as Lisa led her to the living room. The walls were decorated with home photos of Lisa and Tasha framed in different sizes. They ranged from black and white professional portraits to comical cartoon drawings. The one on the entertainment center caught Detective McIntyre’s attention. It was of Lisa lying on the couch with Tasha in her lap sleeping. You could tell Lisa captured the moment with her cell phone camera by the way her arm extended outside the frame. The look in Lisa’s eyes resembled that of Detective McIntyre’s late husband. It was the look of unconditional love.

“So, you and Tasha…” Detective McIntyre pointed to the picture.

“We were a couple,” Lisa sighed. She whispered ‘were’ because of the pain associated with it. Detective McIntyre was familiar with the feeling.

“For how long?”

Lisa offered Detective McIntyre a seat.

           “Two years. We been friends since grade school but after her brother was killed, we grew a lot closer. It kinda just happened, ya know.” Lisa had a blank stare on her face as she reminisced on the moment. “One day we were laying on the bed in her room looking at pictures of her and Terrance and outta nowhere, she just kissed me. I said to her, ‘I didn’t even know you like girls’ and she was like, ‘I don’t, I like you’. I knew I loved her before that moment, ya know, but it wasn’t ‘til then that I knew I’d love her forever.”
