Millions Earned for Her, Ten Bucks for Me

Summary

My novels made millions. But my wife, who was also my editor, funneled every last cent of my royalties to a new male author she was grooming.

"You gave all the money to him? What about my sister? She's been kidnapped! What if they kill her?"

Faced with my frantic questions, she just shrugged. "Can't you just call the police? Besides, I sent you ten dollars, didn't I? And don't you forget, this book is under contract in my name."

I stared at the finished manuscript on my screen, the perfect ending I had crafted. Then, my fingers found the keyboard, and I began to rewrite everyone's fate.
