So ends this case! It looks as though Stone is on the road to coping with the help of his friends and bowling!
Will he avoid the fate of so many Private Eyes becoming a jaded drunkard?
Misters Bonner & Miller wish to thank you for reading and hope that you have enjoyed this journey into noir.
We certainly did.
There are a few Shamus Stone short stories in the works, nothing as massive as this case, but they would further tell of his adventures.
It may be a few months or even a year or so before they begin!

The circle is complete. The snake is eating its tail. Thanks for the story!
I have thoroughly enjoyed this story, from start to finish!
Thanks for the work and all the details in it!
Thanks! We, the creators, tried as best we could to capture the feel of 1940′s Chicago and of the Great Noir mysteries of that time.
I know the story’s over for now, but wanted to let you know I nominated you for a Kreativ Blogger award: http://therepercussioneffect.wordpress.com/2012/12/30/were-kreativ/
