Dray wakes to find his boots moved from their usual place by the door—and the town's main gate left open. Someone was in his room while he slept, close enough to kill him but choosing only to send a message. As paranoia consumes him, he tears through the abandoned town, interrogating the few remaining souls: an indifferent Gix, the desperate cook Cob, and the crippled smith Jerrin. In a kingdom of ghosts and silence, trust is the first casualty.
