“Tamerlane O’Shaughnessy whispered to himself. Another man might have been tempted by the store of weapons. They were shiny and new and some of them looked downright powerful. Tam, though, was already carrying two Maxim Hushers (and what better weapon could there be for a man with a need for discretion and privacy than a gun that killed with a whisper? and to have two of them? an embarrassment of riches, me boy) as well as the box of little brass murder beetles. Tam was not a man who colle...cted toys; he was a man who picked up a tool when he needed it to get the job done. Mostly the job was killing someone that bloody deserved it, and Tam at the moment found himself well stocked with tools.
He watched the dwarf leave, heading back down the hill to the train station. He might have killed the man then, only the little bastard was carrying that thing the boy called a machine-gun. Besides, once lead started to fly, other armed men on the scene inevitably felt it was their business to get involved, so Tam didn’t want to start a gunfight right next to a gunshop with a gunsmith in it. He was looking for an attack situation with a little less risk. He scanned the area around the gunshop and its neighboring farms, noticing the gigantastic looming mountains above, each one the bloody-damn-hell size of Ireland herself, it seemed, and empty as a whore’s heart. That’s where he needed to get the dwarf, out of town and into the wilderness, or else back into the city and in a blind alley.MoreLess Read More Read Less
