The Hook
July 2018. Will Barter, the travelling salesman, working on repairing his reputation after his disastrous run for mayor, spotted the thief Enzo who had broken into several places, stabbed one of the employees in the cafe and was now plotting to escape.
Will decided to run his own scam on Enzo, pretending he hd valuables and needed a place to keep them safe.
Each day Will saw Enzo
Watching the BG train
Time to make his move
He figured, time to mine that vein
He pretended arriving
Satchel in hand
Looking furtive
Just like he planned
He walked up to Enzo
Bag tight to his chest
Asked where could he stay
And be a safe guest
He needed a place
protected from spies
His business was secret
From all prying eyes
What, Enzo wondered
Was in that case
He scribbled a note
I know a safe place
Also I'm looking
For a woman named Lou
It's all for her
This work I do
What is the work?
Enzo scribbled again
Diamonds, Will whispered
From some highwaymen
My job is to sell them
But I don't know where to look
Do you think you could help me?
Will asked, setting the hook
