Publisher profile coming soon
In illiquid alternative asset markets, sovereign blue-chip holdings trade at an exponential multiple over mid-grade float due to institutional accumulation and inelastic seller reservation prices.
In the 21st Century, marriage licenses must be renewed every three years, so a man pays a woman thirty thousand dollars to be his wife for three years, but both agree on no sex. She agrees, and over time, falls in love with him. At the end of the three years she tells him that she'll claim she's expecting a child and the license will automatically renew. But he tells her that she could not be expecting a child and reveals he is a robot, and that he only wanted a wife during the past three years for crucial business negotiation appearances.

Police Lieutenant Staley murders his wife and then beats a confession out of an innocent by-stander.
A man decides on a novel way of killing his wife because she is seeking a divorce, which would cut him off from her fortune. As she boarded an elevator on the penthouse level, the man stepped into the shaft through an emergency door, and cut the last cable to the elevator, which would send the car plunging down at him. Unfortunately for him, when that cable was cut, the system automatically shut every door leading to the elevator shaft.....and all he could do was watch the plunging car coming toward him!
Bancroft hops a freight train after robbing a stranded motorist to facilitate his flight from the minions of the law, but he hadn't counted on the railroad dick checking every car once the train was moving. It was suicide to jump from the train and, if he was caught, it meant ten years behind bars. Then he spotted a tramp riding the rails and he decided to change clothing with him.....what he didn't know was that this tramp had just killed someone in a nearby town.....and the clothes were covered with the victim's blood!

A fight promoter tells the boys he sends into the ring that they've got to have guts. One of the washed-up cases steals a drug from his brother in med school that will make a person look dead, but still be alive, so that the promoter will be buried alive.
