On Probation (Chapter 4)

"Liam's under investigation, but still she can't stay away. Is Nat past the point of no return?"

The rain pounded against the Velux window above my head in relentless, hail-like bursts. The journey home from work earlier had been a blur; the dated underground carriage lurching from side to side as I stared through the window at...

The Fifth Of The Fifth

"I hit a double"

Saturday I went for coffee at a small mall on the east side. I like the washroom setup there. There are two outer doors so if one gets lucky with a chance encounter, you can hear the outer door open...
