The toll bridge at Ashworth demands a price for crossing -- a strand of hair, a clipping of nail, something small from the body. New night watchman Marcus learns the rules quickly, but the question that haunts him is simple: what happens to the things left in the stone dish? And what happens when the toll is not paid?
