Christmas Hostage

AKA Simon Lee Short Story #1.5

Trouble seems to follow Lee everywhere, even now that he’s not the Phantom Thief. After everything that had happened, he'd expected his life to finally calm down and for three months it did. But when he's left alone on Christmas Eve, things spiral out of control and he soon finds himself taken hostage along side a little girl. Why have these men taken her? Lee doesn’t know, but he soon finds out. These men are with the Underground and they don't make idle threats. If he's going to keep the girl safe, he's going to have to use some old tricks. Christmas is a time for new beginnings, but Lee's having a hard time starting over. Does he need to forget everything he's done, or learn from it?
