The Many Adventures of Detective CatherinaMackeena
The case of the stranger known as Tino.
The year was 1930s a time when the mafia, loan sharks and gangs ruled the streets. A time when the world as people knew it in the United States was falling apart. A time known as the great depression.
It was during this time that two local thugs robbed the first national bank of New York stealing a total of one million U.S. dollars.
They hid their crimes from their wives and warned them never to bother them while they were doing business. They never knew that their husbands were members of the mafia.
One day, Maurice's wife accidentally overheard a conversation that her husband was having with his men, a conversation that she would come to wish she had never overheard.
"So boss, what do youse want done with this two bid thug?"Asked one of the men in the room pushing a man with a swollen eye forward towards Maurice.
"Who is he again?"
"His name is Anthony Boss."
"What exactly did he do?"
"He's been moving in on our territory offering "protection" to local stores. He's also been selling his moonshine which is cutting in on our sales and our profits."
Maurice sighed. "He's a stubborn one. I gave you a chance and you used that chance to stab me in the back. What do you have to say for yourself?"
The man known as Anthony didn't reply.
"Look kid, I'm trying to do you a favor. You are lucky this information was brought to me and not to my business partner. It's a dog eat dog world out their friend. You seem like a smart young man, how about I make you an offer you can't refuse? You can join my team and we can work together or my friend here will show you the harsher side of the business world. It's your choice."
"I'm not afraid of the likes of you" replied the young man spitting. "Here's what I think of your offer" and with that he spit on Maurice's shoes.
Maurice sighed. "Have it your way son, dispose of him."
At these words the young man's face turned to that of fear. "Wait please I... "His voice cut out and then she heard a thudding sound and she could see a man lying on the floor through the door crack. Suddenly, the door started to open and some men dragged a man out of the room. They frowned at her as they passed by.
As she turned to leave, she was pulled into the room by one of the men and thrown to the floor near Bandito's feet. "Look what we have here boys, a spy" said the man who had addressed Maurice earlier. She stared up at her husband pleading with him for help but her gaze was met with cold eyes.
