Chapter 17: The Jazz Fest

The Jazz Festival crowd filled the infield to the river.

Forty thousand people in sundresses and straw hats waited as the sun went gold behind the stage.

Emile stood in the wings in a black bird mask and a borrowed jacket, and his mouth tasted of copper.

Easter Sunday.

The forty days were over.

"Last chance to run," Thibault said at his shoulder.

"I'm not running," Emile said.

"I'd catch you."

"I know you would," Emile said.

Thibault squeezed the back of his neck and went out to his drums.

The crowd roared.

Four brothers took their places on the stage.

Under the bright lights they looked like exactly what the world thought they were.

Gaston at the bass. Fabien at the mic. Sylvain with his red guitar. Thibault behind his kit.

The fifth stool stood at the left, with the fiddle leaning against it and a strip of tape on the seat.
