Nano 2015 – Chapter 18

I headed back to my place the following morning, leaving Jake at Uncle Marks, with Zak. Uncle Mark was heading into work as well, but Jake would be fine with Zak to keep an eye on him. Digger’s SUV was parked in my driveway, alongside my own Jeep. I was happy to see it. The Escape had been alright, as a short term loan, but it didn’t really suit me. The Jeep was way more my style. The new front…

Duval lived in a condo in southwest Hillington. It was pretty close to the beach and a number of up market stores, so I guessed it came with an impressive price tag. The parking lot was tastefully landscaped, with colorful shrubbery, all pretty low maintenance. Duvals condo was a lower unit, usually described as “easy access without the hassle of stairs”. Basically, it meant that the best views…

Flint insisted we stop by my place first, so I could drop the SUV off and pick up my gun. I wasn’t thrilled at the idea of carrying my gun around, but Flint was right. If I was going to act as his partner, albeit temporarily and unofficially, I ought to be prepared to do the job correctly. Jake and Zak were happily playing chase with a ball in the garden. Well, Zak was happily chasing and Jake…

The following morning, I left Jake babysitting Zak, or was it Zak babysitting Jake, and headed towards Julia Anderson’s place. Despite her insistence that she had no idea where Jackson Stanislau was, I was pretty damn sure she knew exactly where he was, and I needed to speak to him. I didn’t think he’d killed Sarah Read. I didn’t even think he’d been the current boyfriend when she died, but maybe…

Flint dropped me back at Uncle Marks, and I grinned as I spotted Sam’s VW in the driveway again. “Come on in. Say hi.” Flint ummed and ahed, but I eventually got him out of the car and into the house. Alright, so I was going to pay for this later, but … well I just couldn’t resist. Flint and Sam caught sight of each other at the same time, and both took a semi step back, before smiling politely.…

Nano 2015 – Chapter 11

I woke bright and early, grabbed a coffee and a quick shower, and headed out for a run. Yes, I know, you’d think I’d have a hangover and be groggy and grumpy, but, annoyingly for some people, I rarely get hangovers. Could be the practise I’ve had of partying over the years, or could be I know when to stop drinking. Either way, it works for me. Zak decided not to join me on my run, preferring to…

Nano 2015 – Chapter 9

I woke to the sound of someone hammering on my front door. I yawned and grumbled and rolled out of bed, stepping over Zak, who was snoring beside my bed, and answered the door in my boxer shorts. Maybe I should rephrase that. I don’t have a door in my boxers. I was only wearing a pair of boxers when I opened the door. You get the idea. Anyway, I opened the door. Sparky was stood to one side, with…
