Ropes were sprawled around the floor, and little girl's dresses were neatly hung on thin metal rack. Not really everyday things to store in a basement.

So I set my plan into action. I quietly stepped up the unstable wooden planks of the slanted hallway towards the open door.

into the trunk of a car, and driven to a dark location. I moaned and rubbed my throbbing head. Some man grabbed me by the shoulders and threw me out onto the ground. It was Tony Spagoni.
