The storm lashed tree branches and grim reminders against the only pane of glass left in the decrepit house that kept his bad form in my glad vision, yet just out of reach;  my angers in check. "Check Mate," I whispered in steely return to the jaunty jut of Brazill's jugular as that palooka whistled his happy polka tune the night he cold bloodedly buried Harry and topped the grave situation with that gaudy hussy he'd passed off for years as a louse of a spouse.

 

Yes, oh yes, always fear the one who knows where the bodies are buried, the one who watched your jaded climb to noirish fame, killing off hard boiled colleagues when their pen scratched all the right itches the crime critics were gunning their 44's for. Hey meteoric metaphor man, this tune's for you ~ can you hear the music play? 

 

It was easier than pay dirt collecting for the thrill of the kill of the Brazill hit, releasing Dean's song from the iPod app in Harry's hip pocket -- I just knew he'd lean in to listen -- it was Dino after all.


 

TO BE CONTINUED ?

Better watch out Jeanette . . . Harry had to stop me once from tying your 'character' to a railroad track . . . YOU could be a cunning accomplice of this Brazill varmint for all we know. Where WERE you on the night Paul boldly walked down the streets of 6-City with shovel in tow?

Smilin' atcha ... Absolutely*Kate

HAHA Kate's at it again.

Hmmm,

 

WAYWARD STIFFS 'R US     < It has recall value goin' for it ShyJot ... Why not take the lead -- errr - a stab at it and have your own good go with the continuance of the parlance of this Mystery-6?

Who knows what evil lurks in the fine art of "quiet, ahem, removals" . . .

Comment by Absolutely*Kate on April 27, 2011 at 3:21pm

Damn, ShyJot! How old's a coon gotta get afore we'uns get together?

This does twist and shout rather mysteriously with how the Paul buried the Harry and the "someone" caused a kick-in-the-head to happen, doesn't it? Surely a grave situation round ol'6-City. Makes one wonder who might get done-in yet. Best watch your backside . . .

Better watch that triggering pun Lady Diana . . . A 6-shot in the dark could aim your way . . . Hmmm, you listenin' with your 6th sense, Harry?

 

A lotta shadowy characters writin' along Rob's winding streets of 6-City. (Keep close to the buildings with lights on Ms Backhouse!)

Great! I love it when one six triggers another.

Har ~ The curtain never comes down. Noir is show-biz, Baby!

Rob ~ If you liked palooka, you ain't seen nuttin' yet. Imagine if Harry could telegraph his choice of wordings ... from the grave. Solemn thought, eh?

Bolton ~ You nailed the unused coffin on the head with your apt theme-deciphering. Hmmm, what've you been writing lately?

~ Absolutely*Kate, shedding a little more light in the stormfront on "who else is involved on this case" over AT THE BIJOU ... which natch, cross-promotes back to good old 6 and Paul Brazill's original "dig it" story ... Oh, the things the old gang does in revering Rob so swell

Here I thought the curtain came down once I was out of the picture. Hmmm, this could get interesting. ;)

kate - love that your messing with harry.  but my favorite part is that you have to be careful with the people who know where the bodies are buried along your route to noirish fame.  love that.
