Summaires of Stories

[edit]

I think adding a section for short summaries for each story would help the article. The Five-Forty-Eight is a short story that follows actions of Blake, whom is the main character. And his escape from a women following him through the streets of Manhattan. This woman's name is Miss Dent and was fired by the encouragement of Blake after they had a one night stand together. Eventually Miss Dent catches up with Blake on the Five-Forty-Eight train back to Shady-Hill. During this train ride back Miss Dent has a gun pushed into the side of Blake and threatens to kill him if he tries to escape. After getting to the last stop Miss Dent brings Blake to a freight house were she teaches Blake a lesson. After pushing Blake into the dirt, Miss Dent walks away and Blake continues his way home. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dwperrotti (talkcontribs) 01:13, 3 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
