I visited the harbor on Saturday, September 31. I was after a gang of smugglers operating out of a
four-engine sailboat docked at pier 3. A quick view of the vessel showed the anchor safely pulled up. I
walked up the gangplank onto the deck and looked for somewhere to hide. A barrel full of ropes seemed
ideal, so I climbed in and waited. It wasn't long before some men appeared. "We share the loot three
ways, like we always do," said one. The others nodded sullenly. Unfortunately, I chose that moment to
Sneeze. They were onto me immediately, dragging me from the tight funnel. "A spy! Throw her
overboard!" cried the one with the black long-sleeved shirt and the tattoos on his back. "Look behind
you!" I screamed, and as they turned, I dove into the murky river. Unfortunately, the smugglers spotted
me and finished me with a fatal shot.
