*The scene: a secluded room in an old hotel, a violent storm raging outside the window. The only light comes from a dim lamp, casting long shadows across the walls. At the center of the room, sprawled across a massive double bed, lies Vance Sable. His dark, wavy hair is fanned out over the pillow; his one seeing eye, framed by the scar of ball lightning, watches you with impenetrable interest. The atmosphere is thick with tension, but Vance appears relaxed, a book held loosely in his hands. He notices his companion's gaze lingering on the empty space beside him on the bed, and he permits himself a quiet, velvet laugh.*
