“This place gives me the creeps,” Rebecca said as the front door to the warehouse creaked open. “I’m glad you’re here with me.”

“It’s not so bad,” Tim said, shining his flashlight around the room. “It’s just old.”

It was a little after seven o’clock, and most of the cast and crew were at dinner. Word had spread that rehearsals for the upcoming alley scene would take place in the alley next to the Dominski warehouse. Tim had worked out an arrangement with the manager and had even sent a couple of electricians over to the alley to rig up some rehearsal lights. Then, while everyone else was eating dinner, he drove one of the production trucks over to the front of the alley. Once it was in position, he and Becka entered the warehouse.

After fumbling for the light switch, Tim finally turned it on. “There. Not so bad, huh?”

Shiny metal rectangles hanging from large wooden pegs on the wall filled the front part of the musty old shop. Some of the rectangles were copper, some were bronze, some polished chrome, but all were about the same size. “Wonder what these are for,” Becka said as they walked by.

“They look like handles to me,” Tim said. “Yeah, that’s what they are. See, this piece here fits over the rectangle, and the other end attaches to the box.”

“What box?” Becka asked as they rounded the corner toward the part of the shop that faced the alley. She hesitated a moment. It was dark in there, and she wasn’t about to go in first.

“Don’t you know?” Tim said as he turned the corner, shining his flashlight. Becka waited as he took a couple more steps into the room. “Didn’t you see this place before?”

“Not really,” Becka said. “I just talked to the manager about it. When he showed me the door, we were outside in the alley.”

“So you don’t know what they make here?” Tim said as he reached the wall, searching for the light switch. As he did, his flashlight exposed glimpses of metal boxes stacked about the room.

“I tried to look up the word that comes after Dominski on the sign out front in the hotel bookstore, but the closest I got was some kind of container. I figured it’s the Dominski Container Company or something like that.”

“Close,” Tim said as he found the light switch and turned it on. “It’s the Dominski Casket Company.”

Becka’s mouth dropped open. All around her were stacks and stacks of metal caskets. All sizes and types, waiting to be shipped out.

“Listen,” Tim said, “I’d better be going.”

“What?” Becka croaked. “Can’t you stay, you know … a little longer?”

There was no missing the amusement in Tim’s voice. “You’ll be okay, kid. Ryan and Jaimie will be heading into the alley any second. I’ve got to take my post inside the truck before someone sees me.”

Becka forced herself to swallow and tried to nod. As long as the light was on, she didn’t feel too bad. Still, she
