Welcome dear reader to the post word! If you have gotten here it means that either you have finished the story or you have tried to skip to the end. First of all, I would like to thank you for finishing the story, it means quite a lot to me. Second, I suppose I should admit that this story is still in need of some serious revisions. The character of Santiago, for example, was originally meant to have a change of heart when he met his son and thus spare the Canidae neighborhood, however I was told by a friend that it seemed a tad trite for a story that had seemed pretty smart overall. Hence, I changed it so that Nick used his own knowledge of the legal system to his advantage in helping to catch Santiago.
Variations on this story would probably better capture the essence of what I was trying to get across here. My main goal was to try and show that justice seems to escape the reach of the poor and minorities. Of course, in the real world that kind of injustice is often left unresolved and contributes to many social problems that we have in major cities today. Perhaps you will see potential in this story, or maybe it was just a mildly amusing way to kill a few hours. Whichever!
