He had come back here, to this house, to try and save himself and his family. To give it one last shot.GUTTER SNIPESThe sign wasn't some mystical crystal ball that was going to help him beat Bulldog and light the way for the re-purification of the greatest game ever invented. It was just a rusty old relic of a vanishing era.PRIDESometimes the female lions band together and roar as a group to drive the killer male away. They roar as one to make sure their cubs survive. That night, when the roaring builds to its crescendo, I lay there and listen. I listen, trying hard to interpret the sounds, trying hard to hear my own heart.CLAW BACK (A Louis Kincaid novella)Louis Kincaid has lost his career, his lover and in many ways, himself. Desperate to find something meaningful in life, he is willing to get down on his knees and ask his nemesis, the local sheriff, for a chance at getting back his badge. The sheriff gives him that chance, providing he can prove himself in a just-breaking case: Her name is Grace. She's eight years old. And she's missing in the Florida Everglades.
