Six Sentence Sunday: Laid To Rest Snippet

I'm happy to be posting on Six Sentence Sunday again, especially after April being such a tragic month.  Since the characters from Laid To Rest create smiles, I decided to bring them back.   More of their snippets are located under the Laid To Rest tab. 

           "Ain't what you're talking about called blackmail?"  Darlene handed me her telephone.

"Would you rather be run out of town, Darlene?"  I dialed the number and asked to speak to the mayor's brother.

Albert Stroud stood by the bed as I pulled back the sheet to let him see Mayor Stroud's body.  Like a coroner, I stood there with the sheet in my hands and waited during the viewing, but I sure wasn't expecting the president of Stuttsville National Bank to slap the corpse. 

You can go to Six Sentence Sunday  for more authors and their snippets.  Hope you have a wonderful week!
