I’m writing a revenge story. This guy or girl comes from a rich family. Their dad is a doctor and their mom is a lawyer. The kid is in their 20s and is a drug addict. Their family cut them off because of it.
The dealer kills them because they couldn’t pay the money they owed. Then a loved one goes after the dealer for revenge.
Is this good? I didn’t want to overcomplicate it by giving it a huge conspiracy, but at the same time, realistically, couldn’t they have gotten the money some other way?
It wouldn’t work for reasons you’re not asking about.
1: you have to have a VERY close relationship with a drug to go into any sort of debt with them.
2: Maybe if he first got the money from a loan shark first, but even then they will rarely go after family, and usually it’s if they can’t find you first. And they have ways of finding you, especially if you belong to a prominent family. Your foot print on your area is much bigger than most people think it is.
And also there’s a ton of stories about rich people falling down the auction rabbit hole.
