A Dangerous Shelter

By Bruce Allsman

A Dangerous Shelter, a crime mystery by Bruce Allsman

 

Late for work again, Lou Calvino receives an ominous warning from his boss, Jack Walensky, chief editor of the Westridge Tribune. Walensky gives Lou an ultimatum, find a hard-hitting story or his twenty-five-year career as an investigative journalist is history. To Lou, his life is already over. Three months ago Julia, his wife, lost her battle with cancer. Julia was a real estate agent. She had bought their beautiful home, a gut-rehabbed three bedroom and three bath brick ranch style house. On his present salary he couldn't possibly continue with the mortgage payment much longer or pay the college tuition for their twins, Shaun and Simon. And, he had promised her not to sell their home. One day, on his way home from yet another long session at the local bar, he stumbles across a crime that leads him to a story related to a shelter for the homeless.
