Rattlers

Excerpt: "I don't know how this could happen or how it is that I can be here. Eight hours ago I was handing in my Masters thesis to Professor Rolander, also known as "The Rock" by students because he was sixty-two and built like The Incredible Hulk. And only an hour ago I was eating dinner with my family. Now I'm face down in the barn out back of my parents' home, burrowed in soil, manure and bits of straw. The ammonia from horse urine is strong in my nose and I can hear the rattles growing louder . . ."
