From The Editor

This 1,800 word story reads more like hardboiled detective noir than a typical tale of the homeless experience.

In many ways it seems pulled from the headlines. Law enforcement gone rogue. A psychotic federal agent. Illegal domestic spying.

Or maybe just a wild conspiracy.

You decide.
