This is a fast-paced short story with interesting and varied characters.  The ride from Albany and the parade are unique and entertaining settings for an intriguing plot.  The young "hero" is as unpredictable as you would expect from a drifting teen and that in itself piques one's suspicions. (Mr. M's curious choice of killers!) The unexpected twists keep you uncertain and engrossed until the very end and then the author gives you one more thing to think about.  This is a well-developed short story and a fun diversion.
