Excerpt:

An alley can become many different things: the site of a mugging, a shortcut home, or a place to store trash.  But as fate would have it, this particular alley is where at 12 am, Johnnathan Cole spent
 the last few moments of his life.

This is where at 11:56 pm the person pointed the gun at Johnnathan Cole and paused for a mere second before pulling the trigger. 

This is where Johnnathan Cole fell backwards, looked up to the heavens and began wheezing and coughing up blood.

This is where the person who shot Johnnathan Cole put their gun back in their pocket, stepped over Johnnathan Cole’s body and walked back in the direction they came from. 

This is where at exactly 12:00 am Johnnathan Cole took his last breath and died in a dark alley in Barcelona. 

This is also where Detective Xavier Vidal’s next case just occurred.All Rights Reserved
