    Short summary describing this issue.

    No recent wiki edits to this page.

    When Sela encounters a couple who makes their living hustling people out of their life savings, it's time for her to step in and teach them a lesson. The beautiful Rapunzel doesn't let her hair down for just for any man; she lets it down for every man! And she's leading the love-struck fools directly into a horrible trap. But like the old saying goes "Love is Blind" and sometimes the people you care about the most are the ones you can trust the least.

    The story first tells of Rita and Eric, a couple that work together to carjack people by faking a roadside emergency. Sela gives Rita the book to read and inside she finds the story of Rapunzel. Rapunzel is reimagined here as a young woman trapped in a tower that instead of seeking escape tries to lure men in to feed the incubus that resides in the tower as well. As soon as the incubus has fed enough to form a human body, Rapunzel believes it is time that the two of them can run off together, however the incubus has different plans and throws her to her death. Returning to the modern world Eric decides he needs to wrap up loose ends and kills his associate, but by this time Rita has moved on. Sela is confused by this course of actions but then realizes that Belinda was involved.

    As compared to some of the other issues in this series, this one feels a lot more like a logistical one, seeing as there is a need to introduce a nemesis for Sela in the form of Belinda.  The story which also sort of falls into the same trap as usual, in that the modern scenario is a bit more far-fetched and that the fairy tale is not told very close to its original story.  Despite these more mundane issues the story still comes off better than most of the other issues in this series.  It is not...
