Stalked by a Killer in a Deserted Graveyard Town
In a wind blasted scene a lone pursuer stalks through Lundy’s Place graveyard town pursuing Dillon. The narrator uses a bottle and a bar to fight back as the unseen foe closes in. A brutal confrontation ends with the narrator slipping into a hidden room and barricading a door as gunfire shatters the room. The fate of Peebles remains unknown with a cliffhanger for tomorrow. Four men rob a Texarkana bank of about $8,000 later.
