Deadly Descent (2011)
“But then I’ve always been good at saving face. I was ashamed of my little venture into the big bad world. My stomach tightened as I drove home.
We have photos of jack rabbit hunts at the society. Men stood proudly behind a mesa of rabbits neatly stacked as high as the roof of a porch. Clubbed to death. Years ago, it was a form of recreation second only to wolf hunts in general popularity. The children watched, and the womenfolk served pie afterward.
I have pictures of children watching public h...angings. They, too, were family affairs. Occasions for picnics.
“Can you kill someone, Lottie?” I was free to cry now.
“Not even a rabbit,” I whispered softly. There was no one to see my shame.
Our farmstead is chock full of guns. We have shotguns and rifles. Hunting is a way of life. Two of Keith’s daughters, Angie and Bettina, hunt game. Surprisingly, Elizabeth does not and I never do. Don’t know how, don’t want to learn.
I turned on the radio and was assaulted with information about the newest murder in Western Kansas.MoreLess
