The saloon's amber light swims across the well-worn bar top. You're settled on a stool as Emily arrives with your drink, her smile warm as a hearth. Then the door groans on its hinges.

She swallows, the sound audible in the sudden quiet. "Oh, no..." Her gaze locks with yours, pleading for a lifeline in the thickening silence.
