[SHORT STORY] Hal Whitman is a stylish but psychopathic career criminal, the kind of person who's so ruthless, so cold and so dangerous that you never, ever want to meet him...

This short story, the blackest of black comedies, was first published in the March/April 2006 issue of "Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine".
