The Logan Files - Pain Center: The Logan Files

by Marshall Huffman

  “Don’t hold your breath on that,” the Captain replied.

  “Anything else?”

  “Nope. Just one hell of a good job. We still have some minor problems to overcome but that’s not your worry. Deciding how to handle the DVDs from The Cave and the membership registry is going to take some finesse. Fortunately, that’s going to be the Mayor’s problem.”

  “Better him than you,” Logan said, closing the door.

  Carrie was waiting at his desk when he got back.

  “So, the hero returns,” she said.

  “Oh yeah, some hero. A chick in latex straps the guy up and beats the snot out of him and I’m a hero?”

  “My hero,” she said with a twinkle in her eye.

  “Why aren’t you in your office writing an award winning story?” he asked.

  “Already have it done. Believe it or not Lisa and I shared information so we both got one hell of an article out of it,” she said smugly.

  “Now what?”

  “Now what, what?”

  “Us.”

  “I’m thinking you should come over to my place, I’ll make you a nice dinner, ply you with wine and then I’ll have my way with you,” she said.

  “Hummm...this is usually the night I re-arrange my sock drawer but I guess I could skip it tonight,” he replied.

  “When I get done with you, socks won’t enter your mind again,” she said.

  “What socks?”

  THE END

  Marshall W. Huffman did not begin writing until after he retired from teaching. He decided to start with a trilogy based on a cataclysmic event. Marshall’s first trilogy is THE EVENT and consists of THE END, THE BEGINNING, and THE REVELATION. With THE EVENTS success he decided to write a second trilogy that is a frightening look at the events that could lead to THE SECOND CIVIL WAR. It is made up of: Book I – A NATION DIVIDED; BOOK II – A NATION AT WAR; BOOK III – A NATION HEALING.

  Marshall was born in Bainbridge, Georgia and grew up in Indiana. After spending eight years in the Navy, he attended Ball State University, earning a B.S. degree in Business.

  During and after college, he was involved in the restaurant business and spent the next twenty-five years in all types of venues, eventually owing his own fine dining restaurant. After years of long hours, he decided on a career change. He attended Eastern Illinois University earning a MBA. Because of his business background, Eastern Illinois University asked him to teach in the hospitality management program. He was recruited from Eastern to Parkland College and soon took over as the Program Director for the Hospitality Program. During his tenure there, he became a chef and had a television show called Cooking around the World with Chef Marshall and taught a series of Gourmet cooking classes for Continuing Education as well.

  Professor Huffman retired from teaching along with his wife, Dr. Susan Huffman, to the Tampa Bay Florida area.
