The Song Nobody Wrote

La canción que nadie escribió

Every time a street saxophonist plays the mournful melody his old mentor taught him, something in the French Quarter gets robbed. His bartender friend has the receipts to prove it.

Part 1 of 2 in The Lament That Steals

La mujer del pelo rojizo dejó un billete de veinte dólares, nuevo y perfectamente liso, en el estuche del saxofón. «La triste, por favor», pidió, como siempre. Noé Fontaine conocía esa melodía mejor que su propio nombre.
