Cold Karma

The neighborhood has gone through a lot of changes. Caponi's Home of Champions has weathered them all, even the arson fire that almost took the life of Marylou Caponi's life partner, Dan McClain. Now rebuilding the gym, a team of local "e;little people"e; wrestlers, managed by Jimmy "e;Samson"e; Stanson-himself a former world champion-rent space to train, adding some well-needed funding.Marylou received a call from Detective Martin Kramer to inform her that he had just viewed one of the wrestling team members brutally murdered in Sardis Way, a few blocks from the gym. She'll have a fresh pot of coffee for him when he shows up to interview the wrestlers later on.A "e;little person"e; being brutally murdered was extremely unusual, but more bodies start to show up, and they don't seem to be connected, including a young woman who is in the ICU at St. Margaret's Hospital fighting for her life.Detective Kramer needs answers as soon as possible. The involved community didn't trust the police. Kramer was meeting resistance. He wasn't one to back down. Dan and Marylou will give him all the help they can, but Jimmy Stanson claims he has nothing to offer.
