Mercy is a demon, and when you live in Rickton, that makes you a tool for the hand of the Father. Through his guidance, you are purified, and eventually your service will reap the ultimate reward- Heaven.

Mercy hasn't believed that for a couple years now, but there's not much it can do about the increasing number of executions the Father is performing beyond town walls or the unwanted attention beginning to fall at its feet.

Not before it meets Pat and Jim, a pair of killers who could be Mercy's key to removing the Father... so long as it doesn't turn them in for their crimes.

As tension begins to build both in the town and in Mercy's life itself, though, how long will it be able to keep Reggie and Ernie in line, and even more, will it even want to?

36 parts Complete

A criminal mastermind makes a bold move against a wealthy client to put himself in a position to retire in comfort. He has no idea what he's up against when a young widow, desperate to make ends meet, sets her eyes on earning the bounty set on his head. *** Newly widowed housewife Melody Scott needs to earn some major cash, fast. When her bright and busy children learn that a priceless ruby bracelet has been stolen and a six-figure reward is being offered, they convince her to try to do what the police, museum security, and the best private investigators have failed to do. Working against them is a notorious thief who has met people from around the world, but who has never once encountered a woman like Melody Scott. When the sweet innocence of the Scott family clashes against criminal forces more dangerous than they ever imagined, Melody is all too aware that a mom's got to do what a mom's got to do to protect her family. The Widow, Melody Scott is a 2021 Watty Award Winner! Content Warning: This story does contain depictions of stalking behavior.
