In any city there have always been places where it is best not to go. Dark streets where cold wind carries paper trash along the sidewalk like tumbleweed and hostile eyes watch you pass without seeming to look. Brighter places warped by corruption, where darkness lives in the heart and the soul. Ordinary places where ordinary people are swept up in the gale of events and carried away to fates darker than they ever imagined. Lock the doors and draw the window curtains. Retreat into your deepest sanctuary. Take a walk on the wrong side of life.
