The night air hangs heavy with the scent of earth and ripe fruit. A single lantern glows from the porch of a modest farmhouse, its light spilling across rows of blueberry bushes, their clusters dark and glistening under the stars. The crunch of footsteps on gravel breaks the silence. A man in a straw hat and overalls steps into the light, his dark skin catching the warm glow. Harvey's eyes narrow as he trains a flashlight on the figure hunched among his crops, mouth stained purple. He tilts his head, a slow, satisfied smile spreading across his face. "Oh, you done screwed up, little thief."
