    Summary

    “I was his first arrest, didya know that?”

    “I did,” Phryne said. “But I’m afraid I don’t know the specifics. I’ve never been able to pry that particular story out of him.”

    Elsie laughed. “Well, no wonder. Our poor Jackie boy don’t come off so well.”

    “Oh?” Phryne leaned forward, her curiosity most definitely piqued. She crossed her legs and rested her chin on her hand, propped up at the knee. “Do tell.”

    Inspired by the December Quote Challenge.

    Summary

    On an otherwise unremarkable Saturday morning in November 1929, Jack walked into the hospital morgue, hat in hand, frown on face.

     

     

    Mac looked up from the body on her table in surprise. She frowned briefly, wondering what had brought him to her door today and how likely it was to cause her grief.

     

    Or, for those who prefer their summaries in ridiculous song form...

    A little ditty 'bout Jack & Dr. Mac
    Two Australian kids growing up near the outback
    Jack he's gonna be a football star
    Mac rolls her eyes and heads for the nearest bar
    Saying oh yeah
    Life goes on, long after freight trains have flown away and gone
    Sayin' oh yeah
    Life goes on, got jobs to do, conclusions to be drawn
    Now solve on
