The Extractor #1
The Extractor
Mick Michael is a guy like any other; focused on making money, meeting women, and keeping close to his family. Only problem is, he can’t hold down a job, can’t keep a woman, and he can’t contact his family. That’s what happens when you kill your brother-in-law.
When his niece shows up begging for help, Mick uses his military training and ruthlessness, just to stay out of trouble and keep the people he cares for out of harm’s way.
---
”Women are nothing but trouble. Married women are nothing but trouble piled on top of trouble.”
If there was one lesson Mick learned from his ignoble father, that was it. Even with that pounded into his head, Mick still liked the ladies. Married ladies, especially. Though he’d begun branching out into the separated and recently divorced ladies, with great success.
While Mick might hate to admit it, his father was often proven right. No more so than when his estranged niece shows up at his door, begging for his help. Simply being within one hundred yards of his niece was enough to put him in prison. But she’s family.
“That others may live.”
It’s the creed Mick has lived by for years. There will no doubt be trouble in store, but Mick is incapable of turning his niece away in her hour of need. Sure, he’s an ex-con that no one trusts, but he’s also ex-military, and entirely capable of taking care of himself.
This time, the trouble ends with a gun pointed at Mick’s head and a trigger being pulled. And that was a good day for him.
