Although sleep-deprived from working third shift, she knew if she used what she had learned while caring for senior citizens to good use, it would result in something quite unique.

Armed and Outrageous free run on Amazon

I have jumped through hoops and nearly broke an ankle while doing so. Agnes and Eleanor are pissed. I mean they don't want it spread around Tadim or Tawas, MI, that they give it away for free, they do have some morals. Armed and Outrageous will be free on Amazon Dec 20-24th. As an added bonus Coffin Tales Season of Death is also free thru the 24th.
