The Bullet That Missed by Richard Osman
“So kill me or let me go. Those are your two options. Which do you choose?”
“I think I choose option three,” says the Viking. “The option where I send Viktor Illyich the full photos.”
“The full photos?”
“Yes, for sure. The photos with your friend Joyce Meadowcroft by your side. Both pictures, both names.”
“Bit below the belt,” says Stephen. Elizabeth still feels safe. Viktor won’t go after Joyce either. Not if they’re in the photo together. A friend of Elizabeth is a friend of Viktor.
“Viktor might not have the heart to kill Joyce, of course,” says the Viking. “She is more of a civilian, I think? So here’s my deal. Just as insurance, if Viktor Illyich isn’t dead within two weeks, I will kill your friend Joyce.”

🙂 Right? And once I figured out where the title came from, I chuckled audibly. It was very nicely done.
