Karl has just started a new job, selling magical vodou implements to police departments and magic shops. They forgot to tell him before he started that three of his predecessors disappeared. Actually only two disappeared. One was found dead in a dumpster. It wouldn't have made any difference to Karl, he really needed the job. His previous business had failed because of Gremlins a dark magician had sent to destroy it.

Karl was making his first sales calls in Kansas and things were looking promising. One of the police lieutenants was an Amazon who knew some of Karl's friends. Never hurts to have friends in high places when you're selling.

His next call is at a magic store—and that's where the fun starts.
