Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The Philly sidewalk was dull and grimy, a black-and-white blur of grit and secrets. Jacques Vane, trench coat flapping like a tired crow, trudged past a row of bikes. He didn’t look back at the woman in the white coat, but he felt her gaze—sharp, accusing, like a knife between the ribs. She knew something. They always did.
He was distracted by a man slipping a note to a stranger. Another scheme in this sleepless city. Lighting a cigarette, the ember flaring briefly, Vane growled, “Philly, you’ll grind us down.” The woman turned the corner, her jasmine scent lingering. He’d find her. He always did.
Have a great weekend!

I have always loved a good detective story. This one has a great start.
ah oui un non début de film avec une voix off sur ce plan... J'aime beaucoup cette photo
Yes, you are off to a good start!
That's funny. Well done (with the pic and story.)
Yes he does look like a detective, the lady on the right seems a bit wary of him.
Good plot! I have not been able to link up yet. I get an error saying there is not enough space on the disk.
