Prelude to Millennium: Chapter 1.4 (Vivian Murphy to Thomas Raith)

I decided to include this response from Vivian (Thomas’ contact) before we get to Mycroft and the rest.  This letter pings as Thomas is talking to Mycroft; I’m going to play with time a little bit and see if it pays off narratively.  The next part will take place before this letter arrives and, hopefully it

Prelude to Millennium, Part I, Chapter 1.2 (Thomas Raith to Vivian Murphy)

Below is the second installment of Chapter 1.  Thomas is an increasingly enjoyable character to write; noir predicates itself on writing an analogy a second, especially in the mind of the detective.  Luckily, Taylor has played the part well during game and given me plenty to work with.  I can’t wait to introduce Mycroft next.  Just imagine
