Cooked

by Jack Zimmerman

Joe Pallash is a diner cook, a regular guy with a simple dream: wife, kids and his own restaurant. But when he can’t make enough to get that dream he falls in with Eddie Kite and his drop-dead gorgeous, wife Wanda. Eddie’s a short-fused powder keg of a man who hatches a sketchy get-rich-quick scheme that takes Joe on a ride for his life. It all goes well – a load of cash split two way – enough for Joe to get his dream. But Wanda has other ideas and Joe soon learns that what Wanda wants, Wanda gets. And it’s not pretty or legal.
