This short-story is a combination of unsolved homicide, adventure, humor, and human friendships, with just a tad of the supernatural percolating in the background for good measure. The use of dialogue with each character adds a unique voice to the story; none of the main characters are identified by gender, and no gender pronouns are used as they interact. Indeed, it becomes evident that gender is irrelevant to the plot, to the development of the characters, or to the story as a whole. While the adventure unfolds. the reader is left with a deepening wish to keep learning further nuances about each of the characters, and continue the enjoyable odyssey to it's unpredictable conclusion.
