Snippet From Book 2:

At first, the meeting with Gordon Brown had gone okay; not great, but as well as Doctor Cecily Windgate had expected it would be. After his last stint in prison, ‘Gordy’ wasn’t the enthusiastic lover he once was. When it was early in the morning, they left the motel and Cecily took him to her penthouse. She had hoped being at her home would relax the x-convict, it didn’t.

   The pool was not large, but it overlooked the city. The ornamented city lit up the entire panorama while the edge of the pool looked as if it were a waterfall whose stream would nourish the desert city below. Gordon rested his arms on the edge of the pool and allowed the tepid water to soothe his weary body. “So, Doc, what’s this job you got for me; I hope it’s not one of those casino security things. Nope; no siree, I just don’t take well to those stuffed shirts and bow ties…not my style.”

   She wanted to respond by asking him if ‘prison grey’ was more his style, but she refrained. Cecily looked at him, he had really changed, no longer was he the devil may care guy she knew; for the first time since she met Gordon Brown, she was a bit frightened of him. “I’ve got a patient who is terminally ill, Gordy, she wants to commit suicide, but she is too scared to do it.”
