The Dog is in Livingston, Montana, daydreaming about fishing the
Stone and, as usual, subsisting on Swisher Sweets, vodka-Tang, and
the hope that pretending to forget will be enough.
He's forged a few tenuous friendships, and now finds himself
watching from the bank as troubled local girl Jesse Ringer leads
D'Ontario Sneed into the swift current of young love. It's sweet,
really . . . but some of the locals object to the relationship on
the basis of Sneed's skin color.
Then the unthinkable: vibrant, wild Jesse is found shot in the
head, and Sneed is passed out in her car, gun beside him, window
seams taped, and engine running. Sneed is hospitalized for severe
carbon monoxide poisoning and can't string together a sentence to
defend himself, so it falls to the Dog.
If only the Dog could run from his life without ending up in the
tangle and snarl of the lives of others. A man who wants to lose
himself in the current must be careful of his backcast; it'll
always keep him tethered to a life he's trying to forget.
