Stop, You're Killing Me!

A seasoned gumshoe with a flair for sarcasm wakes up to find the brakes on his car mysteriously drained, a gas stove igniting while he naps, and a ladder suddenly giving way—all while he’s at home. The clues point to a very personal saboteur, and the detective’s instincts tell him this isn’t just another street‑level hit. With dry humor and a weary confidence earned from two decades on the case, he begins to piece together a pattern that suggests his own wife and teenage son might be orchestrating the danger.

The story unfolds in a single, tension‑filled morning as he confronts his family, questioning whether these “accidents” are truly random or part of a deeper, domestic conspiracy. As the detective’s sharp mind races, the listener is drawn into a blend of classic noir wit and suburban intrigue, wondering just how far a private eye will go to protect himself from those closest to him.
