The Case of the Rich Man's Wife was written for Hammered - an Ode to Mickey Spillane Story Event. However, I didn't use Mickey Spillane for my noir inspiration. I used the writings of Raymond Chandler, Earl Stanely Garnder, and Dashiell Hammett as my motivation sources.
Hopefully, you'll find the story interesting.

A time when the police will look the other way for a five-dollar bribe. She's searching for Florence Randolph, the missing wife of the third richest man in America. But all is not as it seems, either Randolph wishes to hurt his wife, or she desires to kill him.
The story consist of a prolog and 7 chapters.
