PRO-BONO PRIVATE EYE Chapter 1

It’s Thursday. I hate Thursdays.

Thursdays are when the  dames come, sobbing, pleading, and looking for a pro-bono Private Eye.

On Thursdays, I say “know” more often than a philosophy student who just learned about epistemology, but without the “k” and the “w”.

Today, I surprise myself. I say yes.

CHARLIE DUNN: Tracer Bullet

PI’s apartments are worthless, but this was mine.

The thug inside had broken my seal on the door. The tape was like my services: cheap but effective. I felt less fear than the tape, though.

I relieved my holster of its lopsidedness.

The doorknob was cold.  Soon, he would be.


Charlie Dunn is a college student studying abroad in Japan. He also wrote Full Count.
