    Summary

    "There’s a funny noise that comes from wind-blown bunchgrass, Carson learns. If the breeze hits it just right, it whistles, low and sullen, calling to the rolling, distant mountains. With each blow, it flattens against the earth and becomes sticky with ridge mud. Carson doesn’t even mean to track it in the house, but she does. Ever playful, she always does.
    Carson was born in 1981 in the heat of high summer, the dust of the impending recession, ten fingers and ten toes and brown eyes that always looked up. Her mother always chided that her father never showed for the delivery, but was the first to hold her under for her baptism just two short years later. Her baptism gown is still in a shoebox in her closet."
