Life's Blood... Or Life's Curse?
One and the same for a Red Cap with no desire to kill. Without the help of his loving sister, Knox Adair would have wasted away long ago, his cap shriveled to dust. Now finally pushed to the limit, he creeps off into the night with naught but his precious sketch pad, hoping for a different life.
Before long, though, his art catches the wrong eye. Knox is forced to flee again, and events conspire to trap him once more. But this Red Cap has had a taste of freedom, and will not stop until he can live his life on his own terms.
