SHORT STORIES
Thriller: Stories to Keep You Up All Night The airport was busy and hot. Marlena had to walk fast to keep up. "The transmitter is very small, less than half the size of a pencil eraser," Special Agent Owen Lee said. He had the slender build of a swimmer and talked with a slight lisp. "Your job is to plant the transmitter and walk away, and then you're off enjoying a few days of R&R here in the Caymans, courtesy of the federal government." "I still don't understand why you specifically requested me," Marlena said. It was a valid question. She was a lab rat. Her expertise was in forensics, not surveillance. "I asked for a young, confident woman, someone who could think on her feet," Lee said. "She also needed to be exceptionally good-looking and Cuban, because this guy has a thing for Cuban women. That's when your name came up." "Who's the subject?" "Malcolm Fletcher." Marlena felt her legs wobble. BUY THE BOOK  AmazonAmazon UKIndieBoundThe Toadstool BookshopsBarnes & Noble
