“There was the rabbit lying in the middle of the road, legs limp but twitching before its head sagged and went still.”

“Now, after days of asking, she and her mother were finally minutes away from the cabin.”

“I got a collar for the boy, a nice leather number with steel studs that made him look a touch mean and inspired me to get myself a steel-studded camera harness, and off we’d walk, miles a day between jobs.”

“This is the story Lulu told me when I was little, since before my mom died. There’s a man. He’s very sick. … When girls misbehave, when they don’t do as they’re told, that man comes and takes them.”
