Abstract:
It began as a plan to shakedown the local psychic community every month. The anonymous letters were the first step. If that didn’t work, the phone calls started. “It’s in your best interest to pay…or else,” the muffled-voiced caller said.
Those who didn’t comply soon found their shop windows broken, and their car tires slashed.
Eventually, everyone gave in–except Mrs. Sylvia. She was determined not to pay protection money to a low-life who thought psychics were an easy mark for fast cash. Her stubbornness resulted in first-degree murder: hers.
