DCI Mooreland

A microfiction inspired by a photo I once took

DCI Selwyn Mooreland thought he'd seen it all — but he hadn't. He realized that now... now that they'd arrested Harry Rightback's widow, Marjorie, and had time to search the house. Bad enough, it was, that all the bodies in the back yard (including Harry Rightback’s) matched up with name tags and biographical notes tacked up on the corkboard on the basement wall. But Mooreland knew the worst was yet to come. For there were still a hundred more tags there — tags with no corresponding bodies. Yet.
