Déjà Vu : A Dark & Disturbing short Justice story
*Since this a single short story, it is intended mainly for KU (Kindle Unlimited) readers rather than any expectation that it should be purchased as a regular eBook ... Enjoy! ... *Please note, this story now also appears in my new collection - 'Dark & Pushing the boundaries of Justice & Retribution'
Many people have found themselves driving in atrocious conditions while in a hurry to get home. But is that justification to drive too fast, even recklessly? Most of the time you might get away with it, but what if you don't? Even if any resultant accident genuinely isn't your fault, is that ever justification for not stopping and leaving the other injured motorist to his fate rather than facing the consequences? The obvious answer is no, but for some, the temptation is just too great ... if so, you might not face the legal consequences, but that doesn't mean there won't be any ... to find out what they are for one such driver, read on ... Enjoy!

Never a tinker or even a tailor, though once a soldier and an occasional sailor. I’ve fought my battles in many a playground and field, with make-believe guns and then riot shields. I’ve stood my ground toe to toe in the ring. But now I’m older and maybe a tiny bit wiser, wondering now what the future may bring.
I’ve hung up my gloves and also the guns, put aside my days and life as a lad, exchanged them all for a screen and keypad. And now it’s my characters that march, where I fear to tread. And when they die they really stay dead, no miraculous recoveries or surreal shower scenes, or of waking up from a season-long dream.
Each word that I write strives to leap from the page, each page that I write urging the reader onto the next. I write what I know and imagine the rest. I write in black and white, leaving your imagination to make of it what you might. If all you want is simplicity and colour from the start, something to satisfy an instant entertainment fix, there’s always cable or even Netflix.
We live in an age of instant information, of every type of visual stimulation, and worst of all, of effortless entertainment. Read on then, dear reader, if you like what you’ve read, I promise I won’t let it go to my head (actually that’s a lie, we authors have an ego the size of a city).

Another taste of karma, Rudders-style. In some stories, repetition of a sequence is irritating, while in others, it’s a requirement. In this great short story, repetition is a necessity. I said, in this great short story, repetition is a necessity.
