Odessa Petty is in the back yard beheading her enemies. That's what she calls chopping wood. It's still summer but she likes to get things done well ahead of time. "What is there for me to do, Mrs. Wickrow?" She asks this every morning, usually when Llewellyn and I are having our second cup of coffee. She lives next door but she spends most of her day here, with us. I am afraid of her. I am afraid of what might be hiding in her heart. Her "Mom" is sick, and I swear she is also afraid of her. Everyone in the neighborhood is afraid of Odessa Petty.

Llewellyn laughs at all of us ...
