Sometimes you know that your foe of
the moment has no future. That he is too far down the wrong road so you put him
down because you have to end his misery. That and you can rescue the three
young girls held in the back of the van. It is just part of the job.
The woman in his living room also
has a job in mind. A far more personal job for the man who used to be Special
Forces and now is a vigilante killer working out of Los Angeles. A job that is
complicated and also very much needs doing in the short story Daughters
by Nathan Walpow.
Told in the first person, this is a
hard edged fast moving short story featuring a nameless and very interesting
main character. Borderline sociopath with a touch of humor our antihero is very
much of the opinion that the world is a place that needs cleaning up after on a
fairly frequent basis. One can’t reveal much about the short story without
giving away too much, beyond what has been said above, but there are a couple
of twists in this tale that help create a mighty good read.
