Chapter 7: Arthur vs. the Post Arthur groaned as he woke. It took a moment to remember where he was. He got up on his knees and elbows and wiped the soil off his face. His left eye wouldn't open; a crust of dried blood and dirt kept it glued shut. His head throbbed when he sat upright. The light seemed too bright at first; the moon illuminated the camp from...
The knocking on the front door that Wednesday morning, was more in keeping with a visit from an irate officer of the law, in other words it was a pounding on the door. To say that I was hesitant in opening it was the understatement of the year. Perhaps he is correct, that I am a dumb fucking shit. I did do the most stupid of things and opened the door, I wa...
It had been a long year since Eleanor had been sentenced to infibulation of her vulva for that year. She still thought she had been punished very severely for her adulterous relationship with another woman's husband, but she also realized that in this women-ruled republic, women who disgraced their sex would be severely disciplined. The man she had been scre...
Hagen collected Montana on Saturday morning in a red pickup that he called a Holden Ute (short for utility vehicle). "It's a six-cylinder six-speed manual," he said and added it had been upgraded. "I bought it four years ago when I gained a big salary hike moving to new employment. What's your car that we are going all the way to Melbourne fetch?" "It's...
When I got out of school I became a stockbroker. But I have a rough side, having played middle linebacker for championship football teams in high school and college, and I was completely unsatisfied. So what did I do? I became a bounty hunter. And I got good at it real fast, and made a ton of money in just two years. But I think my early success got to my he...

They are not meant to cause offence to anyone, whether Jewish, Muslim, 'western', 'eastern', religious etc. Read with an open mind.

It was my first court appearance as The Guardian Ad Litem (GAL) volunteer. I was walking to the courtroom when I bumped into Harrington. My mind was on my responsibilities as the GAL which include digging for details in the case and being the voice for the child in court proceedings. I was excited and scared because I wanted to protect the children in my cas...
Are you familiar with the old joke involving the leader of Russia, the leader of the USA and Bill Gates? The one that ends with Mr. Gates saying "The good news is that God thinks I'm one of the three most important people on the planet, and the better news is that we no longer have to worry about fixing all the bugs in Windows"? That joke isn't nearly as f...
Chapter 03 -- Eve Bousquet's Hope The rest of the afternoon was anti-climactic for the airport police. The other passengers made it through the facility's security with no problems. The airline already had a replacement aircraft on the way, so there was nothing for anyone to do apart from waiting until the island's unexpected guests could be flown out. Off...
I had seen videos of the extremely violent judicial punishments carried out by various countries in the Far East. Malaysia seems to be especially keen on the use of the heavy rattan cane as part of it's law and order armoury. Usually wielded by a burly uniformed policeman it is indeed a fearsome implement. The victim is strapped across a timber frame, with n...
