"Thinner," The old gypsy man had said, and what the hell was with his nose? Syphillis? Cancer? Or something even more terrible, like Leprosy?"

Billy Kalleck, good husband and loving father lived in Connecticut and practiced law in New York City. Everything had been going on just great for Billy Halleck, until one day the gypsies came to town.

Billy accidentally hit an old gypsy woman as she was crossing the street in their quiet little town, and from then on his pleasant, upwardly mobile life changed and Billy found himself fighting for his very life. The Judge had pronounced that the accident was not his fault, but a blacker, far worse judgment was passed on Billy by the ancient gypsy with the rotting nose and toothless mouth. At first Billy was pleased when he began to lose weight, but his pleasure turned to worry and then terror as he realized the curse that was upon him.
