Loads of Action & Twists, None of The Long Recaps

February 29, 2012 by unwasted words

By A Thread by Jennifer Estep The aftermath begins with a nice quiet getaway where no one’s trying to assassinate the assassin. At least, that was the idea. Retirement shouldn’t be so much work, especially after you kill the reining kingpin of the local criminal underworld. But infamy has it’s irony, since doing the deed has made the autruistic assassin Ashville’s biggest attraction.
