When the bouncer Gregor collapsed and died, Grim agreed to look into the matter. He didn’t expect to be attacked in Khonsu’s lowest level. He didn’t expect to have someone trying to kill him.

And the person who, apparently, sent him a dirty package is now dead. Some would see that as a good thing. But it tells Grim that he’s making powerful enemies. The kind that clear up their mess by wiping people out.

Investigative consultant Grim has travelled down to Khonsu’s lowest level, the Pit. The dead bouncer, Gregor, came down recently to talk to a back-street surgeon (because he wanted something most wouldn’t touch). There are only a few who’d consider Gregor’s request. So Grim only has a few possibilities, right? This should be easy.

Except, things are never easy for Grim.

Grim’s investigation so far: Gregor the bouncer collapsed and died. It was down to something in his body that shouldn’t have been there. Gregor was no stranger to body-work. And he’d been to the Pit recently, possibly to consider more surgery.

The investigation isn’t getting any easier.

It’s time to see Shen Leshin.
