True Colors is a very short story set in the Elder Races world.Gideon Riehl is a detective with the Wyr Division of Violent Crimes. He is investigating a string of killings. These murders are following a familiar pattern, one he investigated seven years earlier. Now it seems his killer is back and starting over again. Three victims down and four more to go. If he sticks to his pattern.His intended fourth victim is school teacher, Alice Clark. She has had one friend murdered, another gone missing and has just found the body of a third. Three friends in three days.As Alice leaves the building where she just found her friend, she gets the sense of being followed. When she turns and looks, a very large man is following her. Is he the killer? Did he see her in the apartment? Is he after her now? The only thing Alice knows for sure, is the moment she locks eyes with him, she knows he's her mate.Now she has to deal with someone killing her friends, and a mate who is a possible murderer. Great, just what every first grade teacher needs. The worst part of her day deals with cleaning the glue and glitter off her clothes, and preparing for parent teacher conferences. Not running from potential killers, who may also be her mate.I love this series. This novella is a great glimpse into a very familiar world, but set apart from the main characters of the series. I would have loved it to be a bit longer. I really liked these characters. I hope they show up again in later books.
