MURDER PROPERLY DONE

Marty reveals her immoral, guilt free core. How, she casually muses, is destroying another woman’s family any different from eating scrambled eggs? Both feel wonderful! But she struggles with her own abortion dilemma. It’s her self-inflicted reality. She smells the coffee. ’How much time do I have? Might I still gain David’s intimacy? Haven’t I done enough? What more can there be?  Finally! He says he’s ready! ’YES!’ While waiting for her reward bunny, Marty notices her diamond neckless hanging from a barn nail. She hears the pigs squealing and grunting frantically; and banging against the barn’s side door. ’Why doesn’t he feed them?’ She inhales pleasantly cool air. ’What’s happened, David? Why is everything spinning? Why are my legs chained?’ When David reveals that he saw her telltale finger nub, a sudden realization chills her. ’How long have you known, Mother? When were you going to tell me? Or, weren’t you? Surely you knew where this would take me! Damn you, Mother! How could you? Where are you, David? Come back here! This isn’t funny anymore!’ Hello, dear listeners. This is Minna Morinette, your narrator. In LOVE AND LOVERS, David put Marty in chains. Why such shocking behavior? Is he a closet psychopath? Will his ingenious crime methods be discovered? What gears and wheels turn in the mind of this deviant sociopath? Maybe we’ll learn how someone can commit heinous crimes and believe he’s perfectly normal while he is doing them. David’s comments about how the world works reveal his vicarious reality warp that is without beginning or end.            While Marty visited David, Barbara revealed a few secrets to Bob. He now understands that someone set him up to be the fall guy for misappropriated funds and possibly much more; but whom? Diligent researcher Barbara uncovered the truth about Marty’s activities outside the office. She removed the scales from Bob’s eyes. He realizes his love when first sighting Barbara was true love all along. Barbara never doubted her conviction. He did. And Barbara understood why. She forgave him. The two lovers reunite but they are in a very delicate position. Barbara suspects foul play on a murderous scale; but fearing for Bob’s safety, she holds back key information.           We’ll soon dive into a deep rabbit hole, dear readers, and listeners. We’ll trip horror triggers that will make you gasp and scream ’STOP!’  But, to understand how David’s plunge from sociopathy into psychopathy takes our characters’ lives along for the ride, we must flutter through this storm.  It’s a huge one. We cannot fly around it. We’ll see depraved insanity at its basest level, as David’s mind derails. We can brave this storm together; I know we can. It will be worth it. We’ll learn about psycho behavior. Our skies will beautifully brighten afterwards; promise. We’ve encountered other storms as we’ve fluttered through our series. This will be our most challenging. Let’s not forget: Marty feared Barbara for a reason. Will Bob discover that secretive Barbara is the most seductive minx of all? Won’t Bob be surprised to learn her ways; how irresistible she is? Will the smoldering embers that Bob always carried for her suddenly burst into raging flames? Will Bob finally have the life he wanted? Can he follow where his soul wants to go? Come flutter with me as I narrate: MURDER PROPERLY DONE, the twelfth book of THE SECRET BUTTERFLY SERIES.
