Then, in a moment of carelessness, Billy sideswipes an old gypsy woman as she is crossing the streetand her ancient father passes a bizarre and terrible judgment on him.
Thinner, the old gypsy man whispers, and caresses his cheeks like a lover. Just one wordbut six weeks later and ninety-three pounds lighter, Billy Halleck is more than worried. Hes terrified.
