Excerpt

The bones were wet and cold. The clay in the soil trapped the moisture as efficiently as a layer of mulch in a flower bed. When Edgar held the femur up to the moonlight, he was thrilled to observe how fully the dirt and mold had settled into the cuts. It created an inky labyrinthine abstract on the once-white surface. He caressed the soil around the bones, and then lifted the rest of them from their shallow bed.

“Welcome back,” he whispered.

It took hours to finish his work, but he didn’t think of his other girl even once. Well, not more than once, maybe twice at the most. The main thing was, he finally felt free. He no longer felt trapped. As soon as he’d begun to free the bones, he’d begun to free himself, too. His mood lightened. His outlook improved. The world looked brighter, even beneath the moon.

Guess I had buried myself along with my girls.

He felt so light by the time he finished; it was as if his feet no longer touched the ground. Starting back down the trail, he realized he didn’t want to leave.

An idea entered his brain like an arrow.

I have my hiking gear in the car, my sleeping bag, water, an energy bar, maybe even a package of trail mix.

He grew so excited, the flesh of his scalp tingled.

I’m doing it. I’m going to spend the night with my girl.

My best girl.
