The Eternal Night #7

by

I continued driving.

"I had a client at the beginning of this decade. She had lost her memory, but she was carrying 250 grand and came to me to find out who she was. I put the money in the bank and set about trying to discover her identity."

"Did you?" Roxie asked.

"Yeah. She was the girlfriend of a Vegas mobster named Vic Stane. The money was his. Long story short, he wound up dead and her memory returned, but she wasn't the same. She remembered she really loved him."

"He wound up dead? Lemme guess: you killed him."
