The Elevator Murders

He took out his phone to call the manager. When the man answered, Tony suggested that he might want to put up a sign in the lobby and the elevator, telling the tenants they should be careful not to let anyone into the building they didn’t know, whether by buzzing them in, or when they were entering or leaving the building. The manager agreed that was a good idea, all things considered.


“And that should solve that problem,” Tony murmured as he hung up and went back to work.


“I can do this,” Kirk told himself as he parked in the driveway of his parents’ home soon after leaving work Wednesday afternoon.


Tuesday night, after his talk with Tony on Monday, he hadn’t gone to the club. Instead, he’d stayed home, trying to decide if Tony was right. Or more to the point, since he knew Tony was, whether he had it in him to face his parents and tell them he was not quite the man they wanted him to be.
