In this dark Thriller Short, bestselling writer J. A. Konrath brings Phineas Trout, one of his supporting characters, to the forefront in a hardboiled, tongue-in-cheek adventure reminiscent of the best of Mickey Spillane. What motivates a man to kill for money? Are things like morality and dignity involved? And, most important of all, what is Phineas Trout loading into the shells of that modified Mossberg shotgun?
