War, war never changes. That's the only thing people know. Life is black and white, and between that there's killing, and lots of blood and tears.
You start by speaking with Detective Stark in the Shady Sands Police Station, but to get the proper dialogue option with him, you might need to have 45 Reputation or more with Hub citizens (or have completed the No Child Left Behind quest). Once you do start this questline with Stark, by getting the proper dialogue, proceed first by going back to Hope in Hub's Maltese Falcon, and recover your fedora, the hat you threw away once Hope's case was closed.
NOTE: The chapters of this questline often send you to random, temporary map locations. The names of these locations are the names of the maps that get semi-randomly chosen each time, and have vague descriptions like "mountain 5" or "Necropolis 2'". Do not expect the map dot names to be obviously related to the quest itself.
Once you recover your hat, return to Detective Stark to get into solving some crimes. He tells you about all these active cases:

- Beat up a sleazy guy in the Rawhide Saloon to get the gang's location
- Report that to Detective Stark and he'll give the map coordinates

The Thousand-Yard Stare
