Eleven-year-old Travis has learned to be glib in the process of selling his mother’s handmade products door-to-door to help contribute to his poverty-stricken family’s finances. Usually, the seventh-grader only works the immediate twenty-square-block low-rent neighborhood, where he has become a familiar and unwelcome figure hawking items of dubious quality to customers with little money to spare and less inclination to buy.
One evening, Travis and his mom decide to try new territory. They drive across town to an upscale subdivision in an attempt to sell batches of freshly baked chocolate-chip cookies. In the course of the night, young salesman Travis discovers that rich folks have just as many sins to hide as poor people and, better still, that the wealthy are willing to pay to protect their secrets…
A short story.
Salesmanship edition by Jack Ewing Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks
Travis is 11 years old and has been a door-to-door salesman for his mother for a few years. No matter what weird object she produces for him to sell he manages to unload everything. He has a knack for getting people to part with their money in exchange for crocheted, knitted or sewn items, painted rocks or homemade foodstuffs. This time it is chocolate chip cookies.Travis just wants to read his comic book. He doesn't want to go out and hawk wares to people who don't want them. But his mother insists and off they go, this time to a more affluent neighborhood a little distance from their usual stomping grounds. The very first fancy house Travis goes to has a surprise inside though and Travis learns more than he needs to know about the rich.
This a short well-written story. I really felt for Travis, having to sell stuff to help his family make ends meet when he just wants to be a normal kid. What he discovers at the Lamberts is interesting, to say the least. But I have a feeling the money he made from that one sale will only spur his mother on to new and weirder ideas. Then what will he do?
