This is a series of stories based on observations I have made while drinking coffee at Starbucks. Years of training as an investigator gives me little choice but to accidentally look into the lives of people I see. I don't do this so I can have something to write about. I do this because this is what I do. It just comes natural now. You would be surprised at the stories that are sitting right in front of you if you just knew what to look for. Cover by @Setalmage

Don't believe all that crap you see on TV shows. Follow me on this true crime story and see what happens in a real murder case.

"It is your choice," he said, stepping so close to me that our lips were almost touching. "Either do what I say - or get another job."

There's only one problem: a powerful man blocking her way.
