“I ain’t no expert on what gets a man spooked. But I reckon if you ever wanna talk on it, well then…I reckon I’m all right at listenin’.”

Grady’s been running his ranch and farm just fine on his own since his daddy died.

But when young Jesse Cole blows up on his porch, Grady hesitates before sending him on. There’s something in the way Cole turns to leave that makes Grady want to pull him back in.

There are murmurs in town about the kind of boy Cole is. The kinds of things he’s done.

But as they work together and then start helping each other out because that’s just what buddies do on the land, Grady begins to feel something he’s never felt before.

Something not ‘just buddies’ at all. As the year rolls on, Grady feels himself drawn deeper into the trauma Cole won’t speak about.

He ignores the warnings from his wife in the city and the gossip in town.

Cole seems to think this unspeakable thing will define him forever, but the further Grady’s pulled into his orbit, the more willing he is to forfeit everyone else in his life to show him that isn’t true.
