He fell silent and doubled over as someone punched him in the stomach, then toppled completely as someone else shoved him.

A warbling, frightened, pitiful cry—the kind an animal might make if it were sinking into tar while surrounded by predators.

“What do mean, gone?” snapped Rimshaw.

“I mean they ain’t there. They’re not at the Rio Grande. No one’s at the Rio Grande.”
