Disclaimer: People sort of own themselves, don't they? Which means this is a work of fiction.
Notes: Keep Your Enemies Closer is an mystery AU set in the New York club scene of the mid-90s, when a rapidly gentrifying East Village contained chain stores and after hours clubs, hungry young artists and heroin dealers. As usual, there will be plenty of music to set the scene and bring you back to a time not long ago. This story is entirely written, but being posted in chapters once per week.

Thank you to [personal profile] ali_wildgoose, who as usual went well beyond the call of beta-duty on this one, [personal profile] dreamerren, who encouraged me to keep going when I'd hit an impasse, and [personal profile] honestys_easy, who helped me give it that final polish. This chapter from Murder Must Advertise by Dorothy L. Sayers.
