Synopsis

"Stow it and keep moving. We need to get the Rialto boy and find some backup."

Tulls looked at the pawn shop as they passed. Layers of dust covered the multitude of display items in the window.

...at the dozen guitars masked in shadow....

...each with a neatly severed arm wired to it.

- from "The Lost"
