Too Rich To Kill
Laura Benet is a hit woman. Her life begins in a small town in Michigan. She develops her cold and calculating skills at a young age. Her love for her father turns to hate as she realizes that she is a sex object to him. His fear of eternal hell stops him from bringing his desires to fulfillment. She hopes that she can kill him before he dies. While at the movies one Sunday afternoon Laura discovers her high school teacher’s other life. She stores this information, waiting for a year, then blackmails him for five thousand dollars and a ticket to Miami, Florida; a graduation gift to herself. Laura gets a job in a health club and meets Sophie who would like to dispose of her husband. Laura tells her that she can take care of the matter for twenty-five thousand dollars, needing that much to reach certain people. Brian Winters comes into the health club, meets Laura, and their relationship begins. He confides in her that his career as a professional baseball player is blocked because of the rotten manager. She gives him the gift of getting rid of this obstacle, without his knowledge. She does it for the thrill of the kill. With two murders behind her in Miami, Laura leaves for Atlantic City, New Jersey. She meets Joyce who gets her a job at one of the casinos. Arnie, a gambler with bad luck and skills needs her services. She kills for money and friendship for him. She uses clever disguises and picks her locations carefully. The last murder that Laura commits is the one that will end her life. She kills a young society woman in New York, bringing the woman’s wealthy and determined father into the crime. He hires a private detective who finally captures Laura in a seedy apartment in Atlantic City. This is the one time that her exceptional beauty and charms cannot save her. She dies as she lived, on her own terms.
PSYCHIC
When Alicia Monroe is orphaned at seventeen, she leaves the safety of
suburban Connecticut, for the unknown of the slums in New York City.
Everything that is rightfully hers is taken away one fateful night, and she is
left to put her life back together, alone and terrified. Her relatives want
nothing to do with her, as the contempt that they felt for her deceased
parents, is willed to their only child. Once Alicia establishes herself in the
little room that is to become her boundaries for the next three years, she
uncovers the supernatural world of a psychic. Astrology, Tarot cards,
predictions by the numbers on the dice, tea leaves, and contacting the dead
are used, as a psychic’s work is examined. Conversations with clients over
the phone explore why people are drawn to those whom they feel have the
gift to see into the future, tell them about their past, and help with the
present.
Sarena teaches her how to live the life of a gypsy, and Alicia goes back and
forth between the two cultures, the one that she was born to, and the one that
she will remain in. The handsome Darius shows her love, until they are
separated. For every lesson that Alicia learns, something of value is taken
away. The struggle for survival pulls at Alicia, as she fights each day as if it
is her enemy.
People come and go, all wanting the help and predictions of the psychic. The
last client, Alicia speaks to, turns the table on her, as he changes her destiny.
Live Another Day
Cindy O’Brien Richards the third. She was a society wife now. Her husband Jared never let her forget about her humble Irish origins. Sometimes he called her Lucinda. He knew she didn’t like that name. It was stiff and formal. She was young and playful. She used to be that way, now she was fearful and cried more than she laughed. She had wanted a baby with Jared. She realized what a mistake that would be, it would tie her to him tighter than she was now. Abortion, how could she have a doctor perform one on her? She was Catholic, the church forbid it. God said it was wrong, her parents, the priest. She would be punished, more than Jared did with his abusive words. She couldn’t wait nine months, then leave her husband. She had to do it now, while she didn’t think of the baby she wanted and prayed for as anything more than a seed. She had to leave this man who had promised to love her, honor his vows, treat her with dignity and respect. She had to forget the life she knew with him. She wanted to live another day.
A Funeral On Friday
For those who want to live, until they die
Lenny Rossiter is a nothing guy. Not much goes on in his life, not much
happens, today, this morning, in the afternoon, he has no hopes for
tomorrow. Yesterday it was the same, and he wants to make Christmas, his
birthday, special. The beginning of the weekend, Friday, that should mean
something. It does to most people. The television tells him, shows him,
points out what it takes to be happy. He watches other people doing all those
things, wonders how he could have them, and plans to make them happen.
He crushes another beer can with his hand, under the glow of the thirteen
inch television.
Millie Smith, she wants to be a part of it, life, holding a handsome man,
instead of facing another lonely night. She pours herself a glass of tea, holds
the cup the way she has seen society women do it in the movies. The
television stares back at her, the people in the picture, dancing and laughing
on the twenty five inch screen. She reaches out to them, and the nasal voice
of a man assaults her ears. He sounds desperate as he demands that she try
his product, he highly recommends it. She feels his desperation, as she sits
alone, clutching her cup of tea, until the handle comes off the cup, and the
liquid burns her hand. Tomorrow is Friday, a new day.
Midnight Train
The wind, the snow, the rain
Standing in it,
Waiting for the midnight train
The train comes out of nowhere, a shadowy form catches the last car, almost
landing on top of another shadow that is hiding in the darkness. A soft grunt
can be heard as they roll away from each other in the straw. A third shadow
asks the newcomer for a cigarette, part of a cigar, some shreds of tobacco.
He shakes his head that he has nothing for the man, if he did he wouldn’t
give it to him. Three shadows come at the man, wanting to see for
themselves what he has, and if it is worth taking. They trade punches, curse
at each other, as the train cuts a path toward its destination. The hot August
night turns the air to steam as the men gasp for it, watching for the man with
the flashlight. He will throw them out of the boxcar as if they are broken
twigs needing to be swept away with the garbage littering the ground. The
train rumbles on through the night. The men will scatter once the light from
the sun appears. They are no longer shadows, they have to wait for another midnight train.
The Last Inning
The Last Inning, is about a baseball player, who is trying to save his
crumbling career. His biggest fear is that he’ll end up selling cars and
wearing a suit and tie, six days a week. He becomes surly and difficult
with those around him and tries to hide his feelings from his wife,
which is his worst mistake. She is the one person who could share what
is happening to him, as she knows him best, after 18 years of marriage.
Old-fashioned ideas of men and women keep Tom Miller from doing
what he needs to and saving what he can, accepting what can’t be
salvaged and being mature enough to know the difference.
The story uses baseball as a background and plays an important part,
but the characters are the most essential elements. It is one man’s
journey through his life. Flashbacks tell who Tom Miller is, was, and is
becoming, as time won’t stand still for him, as he wishes that it would.
There are many surprises for Tom, such as Michelle who wants to
blackmail him, J. Pollidor, Esq., who wants to exploit him, his
treacherous neighbor, Steve Townsend, who poses as a mild mannered
accountant, while in reality is a backstabbing, envious, little man. Tom
has to learn what’s worth fighting for and what isn’t, before he
destroys himself.
