E. Black About the Author OceanofPDF.com B CHAPTER 1 eing late was better than being dead, but only barely. Echoes of pistol shots rang in my head and trembled in my blood as my shoulders jostled between strangers in the packed city streets. Missing work today would mean slim dinners for a week, or worse, but when a gang selected the stairwell of my tenement house for their latest shootout, I had no choice but to wait.<\/p>\n<p>And now I had to fight the crowd. In the perpetual shade of the bridges that latticed the city of Treston, my toes smarted under boot heels and my fingers hurt from curling around my knife hilt.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>This is a short excerpt from the opening of &ldquo;&rdquo; by Unknown, quoted for review and introduction purposes.
