NaNoWriMo 2019: Day 15

Halfway through the month's writing, around halfway through the entire novel (I think) and the bad guy entered the stage. We've seen his stooges so far, but now he shows up. Don't know much about him, but he's really pissed.

This book is a mystery/thriller although up to now, it's been all about the mystery. I've been layering in questions asked by the various characters, all while keeping the reader in the dark as well. That includes this reader, since I'm writing into the dark.

Hopefully our hero can beat the bad guy without too much trouble. Pshaw! Who am I kidding? The Hero will get a lot of things thrown at him. I've set it up so that multiple forces will close in on him. The fun now will be to see how he handles himself.
