You will walk the line between your land and your neighbor's, learning where a fence ends and a friendship begins. Wade Hollis explores the quiet negotiations of rural life: the borrowed ladder returned with a dent, the handshake that seals a deal worth more than paper, the swap board where eggs become fence posts and trust becomes currency. You will hear how small slights harden into grudges, and how mending wire together can mend what words broke. Silas Quince narrates in a steady, weathered voice, like sun on barn wood, pausing just long enough for you to hear the crows in the distance. Settle in and discover what you owe, and what you are owed, in the country of close quarters.
