Roadside a serial by Cynthia Piramalli

A counterfeit cop lays a false speed trap to get women to pull over and reveal their contact information to him and turn money over to him. But when one of his intended victims tries to run to the real cops, the game becomes much more dangerous...and deadly!

False Law - His tone was self assured, his uniform intimidating- and he knew it. He leaned over her car showing her all the power she didn't doubt he had.

If she gets to the real cops with this, I've had it - He profiled her from the look on her face and his thoughts raced. This one may be a little harder. Look straight into her eyes and let her know you mean business. At least she's pulling out her license without a fuss. Yep, there's money in there. Just keep going.

Another day, hopefully another dollar - Her car was found that evening, stranded and dented with the glass smashed out of the driver's side window. Police lights flickered blue and red against the dawning sky as they inspected the evidence.

genuine badge - The 'cop' stood there stunned for a moment as he stared at the woman's genuine badge, not knowing what to do. He had known that there might be a chance of this happening, and of what he might do if he was caught. But now that it was actually happening, he froze, all of his plans lost from his mind. He stared at her blankly as she stepped out of the car and moved behind him. Her voice telling him his rights was just a blur in his ears. He came to as he heard one handcuff snap into place.

Are you Michelle Stevens? - The hand that feebly touched Detective Kathy Raye dropped back to the floor. The woman the fake cop had kidnapped a week ago was still alive, but just barely. Kathy thanked god that the darkness stopped her from seeing what he had done to Michelle.

No bullets - Their abductor was close to the two women now, a hoe raised over his head ready to strike.
