"Though I was too young by today's conventions, I had the chance to do a very daring thing that no one else wanted to try, which was to go on a manhunt and bring in a murderer. It's hard not to be proud of that, looking back. Some of this I will relate as it was told to me. Some I'll have to imagine, based on what I saw in people. But for the most part, I was there. My name is Gawain Wallace MacFarlane, and I'm now an almost famous lawman."
