One: The Red Crane

It looks like Jesper's luck has finally run out. He seems to be owing a lot of people a lot of money, and unfortunately for him, the Dregs don't seem to be paying enough to fuel his addiction. There's only one person in Ketterdam more desperate than him: Jan Van Eck. Apparently he's been looking for a new music teacher for his precious son. It's an easy second job that Jesper manages to con himself into. The only problem: Jesper can't play shit. And his new student, Wylan Van Eck, catches on. But Wylan promises to keep his secret for something in return. Will this new double life Jesper's now leading get him out of the frying pan or just toss him into the fire?
