Congratulations to those who got it. Yes. It was pretty straightforward, and some of you are getting used to me. I just hope no one is actually complaining that one of these cases is too easy... ;)
Not the first time you've used disparaging language and violence against gays (and no disclaimer), which is a big turnoff.
Once again a terrific story for us. Your plots are quite varied & I cannot wait to see what you come up with next!
eat shit dear annony, You're the king asshole on LIT!
And did I see a tip of the hat to Clavell's "Shogun" in there? :-)
>the solution of a body ????

But they're just background for the main arc of Don's quest to bring down Moriarty. In these shorter stories, it's the people the victims or suspects associate with who are the really important ones.
Don's use of gay insults was obviously calculated to get under the skins of the homophobic Domingos. Don's personal relationships make it clear that they do not reflect his own attitudes.
Once again, this story truly follows in the lineage of the Blue, then Red Crowbar series. The nuances, the subtlety in this particular story are profound.
Domingo's humiliation was absolute and the foreshadowing of his future 'war' on the four as well as Commander Troy has not been established. I see Troy being blamed for some of Domingo's future actions...
Well, it was a relatively easy case to solve but that's not important. The setting of the scene, bringing in the 2 students and the latter part including the himiliatiln of Domingo are setting up the future story lines.
Total aside, odds on it's Wellman and his wife, the latter has to be someone we're not suspecting.
