‘I can’t watch this any more,’ Cathy told her husband. ‘I think I’m going to be sick. Turn it off.’ She reached for the computer’s power switch, but her husband pushed her hand away, eyes full of hate – although not for her.

‘Leave it,’ he ordered.

‘Please tell me you don’t want to watch this,’ she pleaded. ‘A man’s

being killed. Murdered. Why the hell do you want to watch it?’

‘Maybe he had it coming. Maybe he deserved it. Maybe they all do.’

‘Jesus, Phil,’ she told him. ‘No one deserves that.’

‘Don’t they?’ he asked. ‘And what about me? Did I deserve what happened to me? Did I deserve to lose everything?’

‘You just lost money, Phil. This is a man’s life.’ She turned and walked from the room. ‘I won’t be in the same room as this. I hope they catch the bastard and hang him.’ She left him sitting staring at the screen – a thin smile spreading across his face as he watched Elkins’s body finally go limp.
