"Lucy - That Cheri Stoddard was found at all was the thing that sets people on edge, even more so than the condition of her body. One Saturday in March, fog crept through the river valley and froze overnight. The morning sun crackled over a ghostly landscape across the road from my uncle's general store, the burr oaks that leaned out over the banks of the North Fork River crystallized with a thick crust of hoarfrost. The tree nearest the road was dead, half-hollow, and it leaned farther than the rest, balanced at a precarious angle above the water. A trio of vultures roosted in the branches, according to Buddy Snell, a photographer for the Ozark County Record." 



Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of  Should Be Reading.


"Cheri was eighteen when she died, one year older than me."
