Bullets spatted against the walls, and he saw blood pumping from under Murdoch's right shoulder. "Keep going!" Murdoch ordered. A fresh cry from the street cut into his order, however. Gordon risked a quick look, then stepped farther out to make sure. The surprise raid by the Star Pointers hadn't been quite as much of a surprise as expected.
