Carol Taylor, "A Debt To Pay"

Diamond Don knows he's done for.

(from Bronx Biannual, #2)

Kind of a short, blunt story about an aging pimp who crosses the sister of a mysterious and reputedly ruthless assassin named Black. The "surprise" ending doesn't have a real punch to it, but the overall style and pace are nicely done. Reminded me of Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead a little.
