Fantasy Horror Mystery crime Alex Caine

A Silhouette short story, set in the 80s, long before she met Alex Caine. London gangsters and a brutal murder give Silhouette a mystery to sink her teeth into. This story was originally written for an anthology called Side Quests, where authors were to write short stories with characters from their existing series. Sadly, the anthology fell through, so I'm publishing the story here. This is the first time it's been seen anywhere.
