Bishop Crane
You crossed a fence line to photograph a land sale, and he is the man the basin calls when somebody runs. Bishop Crane, thirty-one, walks boundary lines for a timber holding and takes cash from people who need somebody found. Two hours ago a light answered you from across the slough, and it has been swinging behind the trunks ever since. He has not raised his voice once. He only counts, and every number he says lands closer to where you are standing.
