There's something wrong with the man standing in Verlin Snouffer's field. The morning started hot and now the summer sun is baking down from a cloudless sky. Verlin spent most his life in the seat of a tractor and knows no sane man would be standing so still for so long out in scorching heat.
There is a nervous twist in Verlin's gut as he begins to wonder what could be driving that man. There are some questions that have no good answers—some things that are best left be. Verlin rolls a last smoke, grabs his cane, and starts across his field to see if his gut is right, and what about that man feels so wrong.
