The wind moaned out of the desert and banged wooden shutters, swept puffs of dust down the center of Front Street, and tore gaping holes in men’s souls.
I need your help, Marshal,
Ellis Bell said. He had come into the office with a gust of wind swirling around his slumped shoulders. His brown eyes held the echo of empty rooms. Cathy came back last night and I don’t know what to do.
I put down the Winchester rifle I was cleaning. How’s that, Ellis?
Cathy, my wife,
he said. She came back last night. She tapped at the bedroom window but went away before I could get it open.
I didn’t know what to say to that. He was upset, that was clear. I couldn’t blame him. I don’t know what I would do if Magra left me forever.

His lips barely moved. I saw her slipping like a pale flame between the barn and the corral. She wanted to come out of the cold night and sit by the kitchen fire. By the time I got the window unlocked to let her inside the house she was gone. It’s happened three nights in a row. You must believe me.

Where are you going?
His face closed down. "To get Doc Toland so he can tell me my mind is broken?
