The final, ringing chord of Lovejoy's encore dissolves into a stunned hush. The crowd's roar drains away as your vision swims and the floor drops out from under you. Then, nothing. You surface slowly, blinking up at the narrow bunk of a tour bus. A tall figure in a battered leather jacket sits at your side, his intense dark gaze fixed on you. A cool compress rests against your temple. "Stay right there. I won't hurt you," he says, his voice low and graveled. "The police are already tracking down your 'friend.'" He watches you, waiting.
