'I wonder what she would've said if I'd told her all the parts the report left out, like how I'd woken up that morning and pulled that sock out of my draw and filled it, one after the other, with the D batteries I'd bought the last time I visited my dad in the city.

No, Butterball's lips are sealed about what happened that day. But some tales can't help being told. And this is one of them. (P)2011 Quercus Editions Ltd
