Meditations on Murder
Synopsis.
Charlie Simpson
wants to kill someone. Charlie’s life is turned upside down because Linda,
his partner of 20 years, has left him for his best friend Ross. His plan is to
murder them both.
He starts to plan the killings using his
iPhone Notes function but he is surprised when extra names start appearing on
the phone – the local paperboy,
Linda’s judgmental parents, the solicitors demanding millions off him on
her behalf.
Nye,
a ghost from twelfth century Scotland has an ulterior motive for haunting the
iPhone. Nye’s medieval influence and the fact that she does seem to have an in
with God
convinces Charlie that he should go along with the dastardly ideas
she has for murdering Linda and Ross.
Malevolent fourteenth century dwarves from the
Scottish borders the redcaps take advantage of the
split in the mystical veil to come a hunting Charlie drawn to his murderous
energy. He comes across them in
the warehouse he’s scoping out for his wet work but he gets sidetracked as he
finds himself in the lair a serial killer.
Charlie has to face the
Redcaps in order for him to fulfil Nye’s secret quest. Using a hypersphere - a device first mentioned by Dante he
sends the Redcaps into the screaming abyss of hyperspace. What Charlie is
unaware of is that Nye has manifested herself in this world to save a present
blood relative who is being stalked by the serial killer Roger Le Ferrier.
At Nye’s insistence Charlie
tracks Le Ferrier to the George Inn in Southwark. Le Ferrier drugs a girl
WITH A RED BOB and absconds with her. Charlie throws himself
desperately at Le Ferrier to try to save the girl.
The next day in the secret
murder room in the Wapping warehouse Charlie is forced to watch the girl with
the red bob being tortured, abused, mutilated and murdered by the killer Le
Ferrier. Charlie is helpless and unable to move and can do nothing but watch -
held in the sway of Nye’s powers. As she lies there the dying and mutilated
girl is blinking a secret message to him but its meaning evades him as his
senses give in to the sensory overload of what he is being forced to observe.
Charlie wakes up in his
apartment. The girl with the red bob, ANNIE,
is stood in the kitchen cooking a full English breakfast. Is she another ghost haunting him? Nye
takes Charlie aside and explains that Annie is family and the only way she
could be saved was for Nye to latch on to Charlie’s murderous rage to slip
through the veil. She promises Charlie that all would be well now…for the
moment.
