“The perfect novel for anyone looking to dip a toe into the dark side.” - Bookie Nookie Reviews I just witnessed a mob hit. The lighter flicks like the sound of a gunshot. Smoke from his cigarette slips through the cracks of my hiding place. His dark chuckle haunts future nightmares I’ll never get to have. Please walk away. Please. The sound of a zipper...and then his voice: “Faith Jacobson. 580 Flatbush Avenue. Brooklyn.” He’s got my wallet. My driver’s license. He knows who I am. It’s over for me. He flings open the lid of the dumpster. The nearby streetlight illuminates me, and suddenly he decides I’m not dying tonight. No, I am now to become a gift... to his even deadlier brother. I just became the property of Leo Raspallo.
