Opis

When Roscoe Caterwaul walked those few blocks to pick up the stunning former model, Gloria Gainey, for a dinner date, he could not have known, could not have guessed, never in a million years, what he was to find. He knew Gloria for a lifetime, since she started first grade at Sarasota Elementary School in 1942. Bad timing never let them have a social life together in their youth, but good timing allowed them to enjoy every day together as they entered the golden years of their lives. Gloria lay dead in a massive pool of blood on the kitchen floor, brutally murdered. Roscoe knew exactly what happened, how, and who. It was Gloria's so-called nephew, Larry, the son of a childhood friend, a constant companion of her own four boys as they were growing up. His rap sheet was long. He did time for robbery, assault, and home invasion. He was on parole for carjacking. His favorite vice was crack cocaine. He hit Aunt Gloria up for money to feed his drug addiction. She fell for the spurious webs he wove. Roscoe told her to knock it off with the money - Larry was swindling her with lies. "What if he comes to the apartment?" She asked. "Don't let him in," Roscoe told her. Well, she did let him in. And nothing would ever again be the same.
