Danny strolled the narrow lane formed between the parked trailers that made up the traveling village the carnies called home. His pace was slow, his steps meandering, his attitude completely nonchalant. He dangled a red white and blue cardboard box in one hand, the hard-won result of intense bartering. The other roustabout had walked away with a pack of cigarettes, convinced he'd scored the best bargain, but Danny knew better.
Because Wolfie didn't smoke cigarettes. Well, as far as Danny knew, she didn't. But she did love candy. That was an established fact. He shook the box enticingly, producing the subtle but irresistible rustle of popcorn and peanuts. Cracker Jack! The back of his neck prickled, fine blond hairs standing on end. Any moment now, and his prey would pounce...
Wait. Did that make him the prey?
