A Matter Of Interest
by Darryl J. Johnson

Neither a borrower nor a lender be; for loan doth oft lose both itself and friend, and borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.— William Shakespeare, Hamlet. When Sally Lewis’ husband, Don, informed her of his thirty thousand dollar debt to a local "loan shark" she did what any loving wife would do…ask how she can help clean up his mess. Sam Hall, the owner of the loan company, has an idea of how the twenty thousand dollars in interest can be offset…but it’s gonna cost her more than what she bargained for.
