The Long Game

A story of duplicity, co-operation and greed

A short story of just two and a half thousand words.

A chance meeting between a resentful son and his childhood sweetheart sets in motion a chain of events including divorce, death and an early inheritance.

He’s got what he wants; the girl, the money, and control of his life, but his accomplice has other ideas. She’s killed once with a smile on her face, a second time will not be difficult.
