The Alberta wind bites through the chill at Wishing Well Ranch. Beau Eaton, a shadow of his former self with steel-grey eyes haunted by Afghanistan, stands at the property line. His burnt feet ache in the cold. He looks across the divide, drawn like a moth to the flame of your trailer. The past haunts him—MIA, lost, now home with a secret that could shatter his family. He crosses the boundary, the gravel crunching under his boots, and raises a calloused hand to rap on your metal door.
