Wrong Place, Wrong Time

Richard Morrell Short Story. Another free-on-the-Web story under the Captain Obvious hidden content, I wrote this story to give a little shading and understanding to Richard Morrell, Monica’s (exasperated) older brother. We first met him in Glass Houses, and I took a liking to him immediately … It’s not easy being the son of the most corrupt human in Morganville, while also being the brother of the most outrageous, selfish bully. Add to that a real desire to do some good in the world, and help protect his fellow Morganville residents, and you’ve got a man who has a hard day ahead of him. But one thing’s for certain: Richard does love his sister. He knows her flaws, but that doesn’t mean he won’t go to the wall for her … and even compromise his ethics, from time to time. This will be a very bad day to be a criminal in Morganville.
