Try 2 - Flash Fiction

Missing?
By Kathleen Kimball-Baker


The doberman whined as Dixie drove up.

The odor of liver frying inside assaulted her nose.

Only one other person dared cook here,

and he wasn’t welcomed after their parents’ murder.


Her brother had evaded the law for years -- till a bondsman found him wielding a butcher knife

 and grinning. “Next?”

He’d gone missing since.
