Why this must be read:

I'm a sucker for presumed-dead stories, and Desperado's Daughter writes them well. In this story, set in Mog's ATF AU, it's JD who gets tossed, bound and blindfolded, off a bridge. Will he survive? Will there be angst? Read and see!

A snippet:
    Again, Vin was leaning out the window, watching the events unfold through his binoculars. "Two -- three are getting out. They're opening the door."

    "Can you see . . ." Chris didn't get to finish his question.

    "OK, I got JD . . . blindfolded . . .looks like he's tied up. Moving slowly . .."

    "Is he hurt? You see Buck?"

    "OK, Buck's there. Blindfolded too . . . Shit!"

    "'Shit' what?" Chris snapped.

    "Buck's on the ground . . . looks like they're working JD over."

    The radio popped and crackled. "Are you seein' this?" Josiah's voice boomed through the static.

    Chris yelled back into the mic. "Where the hell is Ezra?"

    "Damned if I know," Josiah answered, then he gasped. "What are they doing? Vin. . ."

    Vin strained to see and he was dumbfounded. "Sweet Jesus," he muttered.

    "What??!!" Chris demanded, but then he saw it for himself -- the silhouette of a man falling from the bridge.
