It was just as bad as Special Agent Tricia Masters had imagined it - maybe worse. The big pieces of the shooting had fallen into place quickly. The car's plates had gotten them to a registration and drivers license in Texas with a photo that matched the body they had in the morgue. Home address, records of the gun purchase, they'd found the serial numbers scratched at but still easily matching the records that the gun shop was required to hold on to.

What would make you say: "I'd pay to use that PDS"?

What if we sent you a little gift in the mail or gave you a special internet hat or something?

What if it was like an invite only club? What if all the cool kids were on this PDS?

I have this idea for a story about a Cowboy.
He's Shanghaied in San Francisco and taken to the Far East where he finds himself on a voyage to a lost island.
