Excerpt
The wind came from the North, unexpected, with a bone-chilling scream that ripped the last of the autumn leaves from the trees lining Main Street.
Father and daughter made their way in the gloaming light, the frail blond girl skipping lightly ahead of the stooped man, dressed in Levi's and cowboy boots.
The girl's shrill laughter startled the man from his dark thoughts. He watched apprehensively, as she splashed with her yellow rain boots in the puddles left by the passing storm
