The Windy-City is the setting of our tale of incomplete-distances readings of heist and misadventure, involving twins of the American Homeland, tracked by a sharp rookie cop/detective named Estevez who wants only one thing for Chicago...a clean breakfast (Facebook-like).

MR. AMLAN SATAN: "My twin and I enter the diamond store where there's treasures from around the 'good' Earth, masked in our Coronavirus-gear and holding water-guns (for show!) filled with acid...and we tell the merchant we're to trade some of the in-store pieces with special ones we've brought for a rival-theater concerning Ion company's investments, and we even leave him (counterfeit) bills...and this marks some detective-eyes for black market diamonds moving around for difficult conspiracy theory (Facebook-like)" (Journal Entry).

MR. AJAY SATAN: "My brothers looks like the sharp 'Arab' in this merchant-strike, and I shall look more like a mod-pirate in this diamond operation...Windy-City's lore for Ion company, and this move for insurance jitters makes 'mark' of things of leviathan/uncertainty...me thinks to craft the entire twin-investor handshake in Coronavirus-mask in the store as a special calculator-axes of social media 'street' field goals" (Facebook-like) (Journal Entry).

EZZY: You want me to go to the store while you're doing this insurance play?

AJAY: I love you...you're a doll-waitress of this Windy-City...I need this/you!

EZZY: Then we fly-away to Brussels to open a waffle-dive?

AJAY: What's wrong with that, Esmerelda?

EZZY: Do you know Ion's ties with conflict-zone gems (Africa, UK, Palestine)?

AJAY: Is Palestine part of Chicago (hmmm)?

EZZY: This is dark.

AJAY: Facebook-like!

Detective Estevez was the only person unimpressed, tracking our two 'beloved' Merry-Men (Amlan/Ajay) who were now already in Brussels (Belgium!) orchestrating their retirement waffle-house (with darling Ezzy). She played a role, of course, posing as a giggling/impressed random street-pedestrian (aristocrat) customer (Facebook-like).

ESTEVEZ: These guys were in Coronavirus mask(s)?

MERCHANT/OWNER: We seek no 'street' insurance-gossip ties with Ion!

ESTEVEZ: Calm-down...this seems an operation by an Ion-rival (maybe).

MERCHANT: Vigilantism (ha).

ESTEVEZ: Or maybe just a diamond-trades insurance comment (tall) tale.

MERCHANT: Weird (like in the movies).

ESTEVEZ: Ha.

Ajay treated Ezzy to his (now!) 'world-famous' Belgian-waffles...the deed had been acquired, and for the Brothers Satan, Windy-City talk/superstition was past. This had become an underground street-tale for the annals of Earth realm heat...and maybe it was good (Facebook-like).

[Lynda Logan]

The pacing and structure of the story were expertly managed, keeping me hooked from start to finish. Every chapter felt purposeful, and the resolution was both satisfying and meaningful. A dedication to their craft is evident in every word they write.
