    About this ebook

    In the short story Deadly Investment, real estate rarely encounters a deathly listing. However, in the loosely connected world of one agent; one realty property becomes a dwelling of ghastly horrors. As a mediocre home, is temporarily rented to lure prospected buyers into signing more than the owner's agreement.
    In A Scorned Woman's Fury, one stunningly beautiful young woman realizes that good looks and charm are not all it is cracked up to be, as she becomes aware early in life that beauty is only skin deep. So just like anybody else, she discovers life is a cruel and unforgiving jungle meant only for those who are willing to take anything and everything at any cost. And in the end, even beauty can cause create great consternation on behalf of a repulsive interior.
