POW

21 guns fired into the air on one accord as my former partner's casket laid in front of myself and his family. The American flag that was draped over it was now being folded. One of the officers kneeled before handing the flag to his mother.

Ricardo Finnelo. He wasn't nicest person but he was a good cop. He earned respect but with that respect came a lot of enemies. Hell, even I couldn't stand his ass but I wouldn't do this. Even though all the circumstances would lead to me.

He was murdered.

On my doorstep.

I was finishing some files with my captain and a few other officers. I arrived home at about 11:30pm and found Ricky on my front porch with a bullet in his head. They said he had been dead for at least 3 hours.

My pregnant wife was sleeping inside and I can't help but think...Who would have done this? Why does the killer know where I live? What if the killer would have went inside my house?

My wife and unborn child would be dead. Knowing that makes me wanna take this guy down for murder and for endangering my family.

The hard part? Finding the killer.

Like I said Ricky had a lot of enemies which makes the pool of suspects even larger.




So...are you ready?
