“The place was home to 987 residents, each of them being self-sufficient enough with their small farms and engaging in occasional trades with other towns to make ends meet.

Gail had once asked her father while he was piling up cantaloupes after a modest harvest."It's too bad a place out there, Gail," her father had re...plied, his one good gray eye looking at her before it focused back at the pile of fruit. "I tried leavin' when I was a young lad and look what it did to me? The devil himself came out of nowhere, knocked me out cold, and left me bleedin' and half blind."Gail had wished she hadn't asked.
