Newshawks.
Of course, they’d be here. They wouldn’t miss this for the world. The dramatic dénouement to the Alice Holloway murder case, the most baffling and violent murder to hit Harlem this month.

The last witness was here, Dash Parker knew it.
The thought sped up his heart and twitched his fingers. He bounced on the balls of his feet, anxious and yet strangely reluctant to enter the building looming before them.

A spoiler-free antagonist (in a mystery, they’re unknown until the end). BUT I have a few known ones. There’s gangster Nicholas Fife—preening, toying, teasing, oddly sexy, and then he roars to deadly rage in seconds.

So obviously, he’s inspired by Maleficent. 😈

Dash nodded as he spied an enormous tower perched on the far corner of the property. It overlooked the black ribbon of the Hudson shimmering in the moonlight. The water ran fast in between New York and New Jersey, like a pickpocket escaping through a busy crowd.
