And believe me, it was a mistake.

In the dark, windowless cabin, I could see Castingle on a bunk at the far end, tightly bound with ropes and rawhide.

Looking at me helplessly.

I said, come in.

And standing in front of me was the biggest, most ugly man I've ever seen.

250 pounds at the least, built like a gorilla.

His face was covered with coarse black stubble.

His long hair straggled down into the back of the collar of his dirty shirt.

Aimed at my chest was an ancient rifle with a bore almost big enough for a shotgun.

That's better, mister.

Now, Peter, Luke, John.

Three specters came forward out of the shadows.

Smaller men, also dirty, unshaven, looking no less menacing than the man in front of me.

Each of them had a rifle.

I could feel one of them against my backbone.

Now, listen, I took a course once from the FBI on the proper procedure for disarming a man who has a gun in your back.

But they forgot to tell me what to do about four of them.

So I raised my hands up over my head.

And now, Act Three of Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar and the Deadly Swamp Matter.

I've been in some pretty tough spots in this crazy job of mine, but nothing ever quite like this.
