© 2025 J. J. Hanna I had done everything right. The phone was a burner. Amanda was spooked but safe. The Metgov job had been cleaned. I stopped for coffee at a bike cart and paid with cash while waiting for updates on our other jobs. In my opinion, George had flown too close toContinue reading “The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 18: Axel”

The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 17: Olivia
© 2025 J. J. Hanna It usually takes a lot to surprise me. The way my mind works often puts me five steps ahead, which means I see the surprise coming while people around me plan it. It’s gotten so bad that my children and grandchildren don’t even wrap presents for me anymore, because IContinue reading “The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 17: Olivia”
The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 16: Lucielle
© 2025 J. J. Hanna The operation with Amanda had pulled back the curtain on some of the layers of this case, but there were still too many moving parts for me to feel confident in making any moves just yet. After all, we had crimes and we had suspects but we had nothing toContinue reading “The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 16: Lucielle”
The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 15: Amanda
© 2025 J. J. Hanna I spent the whole day in that windowless room before Lucielle’s supervisor insisted they let me go home. I could give them people’s names, but I couldn’t give them any other details on their lives. That had been proven time and time again. I knew them, but I didn’t knowContinue reading “The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 15: Amanda”
The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 14: George
© 2025 J. J. Hanna There’s a warrant posted for me. I can’t stay at my house. You said to await further instruction. I can’t wait any longer. It’s time to put your plan to get me out of this into action, George. Because if the police bring me in, I’ll tell them everything IContinue reading “The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 14: George”
The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 13: Adam
J. J. Hanna © 2024 An alert made my phone ping, drawing my attention from my most recent match in Call of Duty. “Oh hell no,” I muttered. One of my old systems had just gone off. Someone had tracked my IP address. I cursed again as a different team killed me, ruining my chancesContinue reading “The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 13: Adam”
The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 12: Lucielle
J. J. Hanna © 2024 While I waited for the facial recognition results to come back, I weeded through the store’s security camera footage one of my agents had gotten. Then I returned to Amanda. She was pacing when I let myself into her room. She looked over at me and a myriad of emotionsContinue reading “The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 12: Lucielle”
The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 11: George
J. J. Hanna © 2024 Things were spiraling out of control, and I hadn’t orchestrated the spiral. It’s one thing to witness a storm from the safety of the eye. It’s completely fine, and preferred, truly, to watch the world unravel when you’re the one who caused the chaos. But when the chaos finds youContinue reading “The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 11: George”
The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 10: Adam
J. J. Hanna © 2024 I had been inside for three weeks. That wasn’t exactly a change from my normal routine—it’s not like I kept a strict gym schedule. But I was getting restless and I hadn’t heard anything more from Avalon. I needed to do something other than play endless rounds of Call ofContinue reading “The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 10: Adam”
The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 9: Lucielle
J. J. Hanna © 2023 It was a calculated move, but that didn’t make it any easier to do. I hadn’t lied to Amanda. The evidence all pointed to a connection point at the coffee shop. But I couldn’t find the connection by leaving everything as it was. We had to stop this crew fromContinue reading “The Regulars of Amanda Lexie Part 9: Lucielle”
