Framed for Murder

My name is Charlie English. I'm thirty-eight and homeless, so when a man offered me forty bucks to deliver a message and another forty when I had, I jumped at the chance. I shouldn't have. I walked into the house -- and a murder scene -- barely getting away before the cops arrived.

I needed to get out from under the frame, and knew a private detective who might be willing to help me. There's one problem, though. He's my ex-lover, which could make things dicey.

He's less than happy to see me...
