Obituary for Howard Gray

Alan Caley was far from delighted to receive a phone call from his old school pal Chuck Brogan. It was quite some time since he had last seen Brogan, who had taken part in a gold robbery and been sent to prison for a number of years. Caley felt inclined to refuse the invitation, but Brogan was persuasive and hinted that the meeting might turn out to be to Caley's financial advantage. So he agreed to have lunch with Brogan, little suspecting what dire consequences were to stem from that free meal.
