Reading module L1 (Secret of Bone Hill) I got the impression that something was missing. There are references in the first part of the adventure to some places not covered in the interior maps. After some search I finally found out that the module was originally sold with a second cover containing those maps, exactly like the second part of the story, The Assassin's Knot, but nobody (Nobleknight.com, Hitpointe.com, TSR Archives by Ob1knorr, etc.) remembered it.Having bought this module on Nobleknight.com I obviously have not the missing interior cover and so I can't provide a scan, but I can attach the maps I found on the internet which were printed on that cover. Please ask someone who owns L1 to check if I am right.
