This short novella is worth the read ,a dark fast paced story which develops and reveals the characters like a textual painting . There are similarities of style to classic short story/novella writers such as Ray Bradbury,Oscar Wilde etc, and the plot uses the vehicle of a musical instrument in the hands of a mystery man to reveal the inner intentions of 2 robbers to themselves and the reader (who is like a 4th witness to the drama). Just as it seemed there was hope, the ancient reality too many have denied in a post modern world of cyber-analgesia slams down like a ...well,will let you read it yourself . This novella will definitely qualify as food for thought .
