Part 1: "Into the Rat Hole"

by Tim Larsen

"I need an answer now, pal. What's it going to be?"
-Lenny Starkweather.

Your life is crap. What would you do if someone offered you a ticket out? Only thing, it might be a little... risky.

17-year old fry cook Calvin Ryder is on a motorbike road trip to Mexico to celebrate his birthday. His friend Lenny's footing the bill on condition that Calvin agrees to help out standing guard for him while he conducts a back-room drug deal for five minutes. No problem, right? Wrong. On his way there Calvin gets some petty revenge on a biker gang. Trouble brews when he finds the very same place for the meet-up with Lenny is none other than their headquarters!

Mayfield Eight is a six part story set in 1974 New Mexico. Our poor fry cook Calvin Ryder gets up to his apron in vicious bikers, deadly drug dealers, crooked con artist friends and a malicious State Trooper who may or may not be on the right side of the law.
