PROLOGUE
Howdy! Burton James here. A year has passed since we last visited. I thought it might be worthwhile to update you on what’s transpired in the interim. As you may recall, I was successful in recovering fifteen million dollars plus interest fraudulently pilfered from the coffers of my best friend’s mother. To make a long story short, the con artists responsible for this devious act confessed their sins and were all given their just rewards.
