Susan Brown walks into a nightmare when she walks in on a contract killing.
Running for her life, she takes her young son and gets out of town.
Unfortunately, she has no idea where to go. Mitch Pellagrino, homicide detective, has a personal grudge against the killer Susan encountered. When he tracks down the only witness, Susan, each remembers the last time they met - when Mitch slammed the door in Susan's face
and told her to stay away from him and his family.
On the other side of the hospital another black limousine eased to a stop in front of a side exit door. The door opened. A soft yellow light shone out from the inside. Grethe Byrne stepped out, visible in the yellow light. She allowed the door to close behind her. The light was extinguished and she stood in the darkness. She’d been waiting for the limo to arrive but didn’t want to call attention to it.
Closing her eyes briefly she gave her head a shake, then turned the doorknob.
She'd check the safe in the library, call Gino and blow this place.
Stepping through the door she turned and managed a gay laugh.
"Don't forget about that dance David."
"Damn." He growled.
Their eyes met briefly and she found herself staring into a pair of dark, very angry eyes.
He slithered silently across the room, covering the distance between them in two smooth strides.
Kicking the door shut, he covered her mouth, as she stood frozen, staring at him,
mouth open but no sound emitting.
There was pain and then everything faded to black
