I just thought that I would give you a little tease of the next Jack O'Callahan Mystery! I will say that this story will defiantly be much more mature than The Curious Death of Mr. Grove. Meaning, if you are not interested in reading explicit content, you should probably skip over this story.
-----------------
The rain came down in sheets over the city of Chicago. Jack sat leaned back in his desk chair. He could hear his secretary, Jenn moving around outside the office door. She poked her blonde head inside.
“Mr. O’Callahan? I’m going to be heading home soon,” she stated.
“Alright, see you tomorrow,” nodded Jack. She withdrew her head and closed the door. He heard her gathering her things, opening the door and leaving. He stood and walked to the window that looked out across the city. It had been a month since that call from the mysterious person. The voice was still trapped in his ears. Who was she? How did she know that I was investigating the death of Mr. Grove? He reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a cigarette. He tucked it between his lips and flicked open his lighter. He puffed on the cigarette thoughtfully. There was a knock at the door.
“Come in!” called Jack. He turned around expecting to see Jenn. But instead of his blonde secretary he saw a middle-aged man with slicked back salt and pepper hair. He had a square jaw, a hooked nose, and thin lips. He was wearing a fine, tailored suit and in his right hand was a black leather briefcase.
