Black Escape — C.J. Thomas

The pressure was on.

Madam used District Attorney Oscar Buchanan to get to me. My efforts to outsmart them both quickly turned against me. They were too clever and I was betrayed by the people closest to me.

Kelly did his best, but it was never enough.

Our frayed relationship was on edge and, when Madam needed something Kelly had, it was up to me to choose the future I wanted. Saving Kelly was never a question. All I wanted was for me to be free and for Kelly to find peace within his own heart. Except he refused to hand over his secret, so I paid the price.

When I thought our relationship was over for good a familiar face revealed himself, proving, once again, that nothing was as it seemed.
