This one just wrecked me! Brothers, Davey and Ronny witness Maggie returning to their farm with a body, but it's not quite what you first suspect and this body is to be a part of their family. Miss Rose needs to learn how to function as a human again and doesn't appear to have any memory of her life before arriving at the farm.

This is a short book, so it is hard to say much beyond the above, but the payoff is immense. The book is made up of short chapters and is easily devourable in a sitting. I can't rightly say who wrote what in here, but Lutzke has an afterword that notes Boden writes more poetically and gives a short summary on how the project grew from a Boden short story.

This one was part of WellReadBeard's top 20 novellas and there was a host of other Boden titles included that I will need to seek out. I already have more Lutzke lined up and although I am mainly a crime fiction reader, it appears there is going to be more time devoted to horror in the upcoming future.
