Friday Flash 55.....




The crime appeared random.
She bled out with barely a whimper.
That cheating bitch deserved it!
His perfection made him smile.
No cell phone, no surveillance, no witness.
The bloody evidence was burried miles away.
But SUDDENLY...Panic engulfed him as he glanced toward his wrist, and the pale outline of his missing Timex!!

.

If you or anyone you know has written a Friday Flash 55, please come tell The G-Man. I will visit, read, enjoy, comment, Then BOOK!!
So from the most gracious host from coast to coast...
Have a Great Week-End!
Peace...!!!

Oops. Now whatcha gonna do genius?

Kinda gruesome there G. The "accidental suicide" in the garage was a lot less messy.

You haven't taken out any large insurance policies lately have you?

Was it a crime of passion?

You're getting ready to try your hand at writing murder mysteries, aren't you? That's pretty darn good in only 55 words.:)

Devotee said...

Doing my best Peter Falk impression: "Oh, just one more thing, sir. The evidence guys, they found this watch near the body ..."

Glad you are getting a refund. So am I, believe it or not!

I hope that watch doesnt turn up in a pool of blood somewhere.

Have a good weekend, Gman!

buffalodick said...

Can't say the watch was stolen- no one steals a Timex...

Mary said...

I guess that means that the ticking he hears is simply the beating of her tell-tale heart.

My 55 is up.

Akelamalu said...

Dr.John said...

Is there a list somewhere of all the blogs with flash 55's . It is so time consuming to have to keep digging them out of the comments.

Donnetta said...

You need to share this with James Goodman. He could use it on his Darwednesday post.

Good one!

Mine's up. D
