Though Fountain’s driveway hosts an unlikely menagerie, the inside reveals nothing unique in this town, just gutted walls and moldy phantoms. In a doorless closet hang some shirts, and a small plasma TV babbles happily in the converted garage. Fountain is fixing up the place nice, or at least trying to. He walks back outside to his band and points to the golden trumpet. But he has forgotten something inside.“Wait. Hold...
