Shadow of Death
For the last six years, you've lived in relative comfort as a citizen of Jackson, Wyoming. You should feel lucky to be part of a strong, thriving community and dwell safely behind sturdy walls. But you don't. Not when you didn't deserve it. The real story behind your sister's passing is a truth you can't bear anyone to know. You try to smother the guilt, try to keep your days full with work at the stables and other tasks of mundane nature, but the ghost of her continues to hang over you after all this time. Things threaten to boil over when your best friend Tommy asks an important favor of you involving his surly older brother - one you'd really rather not agree to, but find yourself signing up for without much of a choice. Putting up with him is no walk in the park at first. But, much to your surprise, the shadow of death clings to Joel Miller too, and so maybe it was only inevitable that a connection was to be made between a pair of tortured souls with dirty little secrets. "Everything you love is very likely to be lost, but in the end, love will return in a different way." - Franz Kafka
