The driveway ended in a wide circle with a sunken garden in its center.
This garden was dominated by an ornate, three-tiered fountain, with a kneeling woman of stone weeping atop its central plinth.
The surface of the oblong fountain pool was thick with virid slime and pond scum, clogged with stone water lilies and dead leaves.
An eternity of dead leaves.
I walked over to the only car that was parked beyond the garden.
It was a black Bentley, rebodied in a classic 1950s style, with a plush red interior and shiny silver louvres big enough to see the engine through.
There was dried mud on the Bentley's plates and more mud splattered above the wheels.
I shaded my eyes to look inside.
The key was still in the ignition.
I wasn't surprised to find the heavy wooden double door slightly ajar.
I poked my head through carefully.
A crack of light seeped past the threshold to illuminate several feet of wine-colored carpet and, in the deeper shadows, the foot of a wide, old-fashioned staircase.
My gut and every other part of me insisted this was an ignis fatuus, a foolish fire of the highest order.
Instead, I made for a side entrance and jimmied the lock.
Inside, I prowled a network of gloomy corridors, barely illuminated by a series of recessed lamps.
Far off, a thin scraping sound slithered out and lost itself among the silence.
The way got darker.
I squinted to discern the inchoate forms of suits of armor and moth-eaten pennants, as stuffed and mounted eggs of wild boars, wolves, and bears.
There was a heavy smell of dust and varnish, and beyond that, a quiet, earthy smell, which evoked some vague notion of primitive man.
I skirted the lobby and mounted the staircase to the upper floors.
