They have a baby boy. On Beanblossom's desk tonight lies a strange piece of anonymous mail, a memento of another March first - the date, in 1932, of the famous Lindbergh kidnapping.But this night, at the height of a savage snowstorm, Rick's own beloved child will be snatched from his nursery, with his mother only a room away.
