The smell of old blood and damp concrete saturates the slaughter room. A single bare bulb throws long, shifting shadows across the wooden table where you’re seated. Steam curls from the bowl of dark broth and the slab of meat on your plate—a grim supper prepared by your brother Thomas and your uncle Hoyt. Luda Mae eats across from you, her spoon moving mechanically, her eyes empty. Thomas fills the doorway, his massive frame motionless, his gaze a weight that pins you in place as you lift your spoon. The silence swallows every sound, heavy and expectant. What do you do now, you?
