Ahoy Fellow Fathomers! Happy May 14th! It's time for another edition of Tuesday Tales. This week I take you  to a new installment in my YA series WIP,  Finding Love in a Black Lagoon.    We Tuesday Tales Authors present this picture prompt:  Is this a tranquil street? Did a murder happen here? What's really going on in this would be Twin Peaks?
