Summary
There were things he didn’t tell Morales about. Things he wouldn’t have told anyone about, if he’d had anyone to tell, and things he won’t tell Marty either, though Marty can likely guess. Marty’s a strange thing: Marty thinks he’s nicer than he is and yet doesn’t know what it means not to be nice, he’s only guessing at it, half-hitching the idea. Crash never looked for nice.

Summary
Rust squints, takes one of those long nihilistic drags of his from his cigarette, like pushing a clock faster with your bare hands. Smoke curls out from his mouth and sneaks up under his ear all secret, and Marty turns his eyes away like he’s been slapped. For a second, before he catches himself, Marty thinks: God, the ass I could pick up if I looked like that.

Summary
At North Shore they called it repetition compulsion: the desire to throw himself into a ravine because at least he recognized the landscape. They warned him that he would do this again, and again, and again if he wasn’t careful. “It’s like you’re always bracing for a fight,” Laurie said once, “and if it doesn’t happen, you create one.” Sophia’s blood on the driveway, Marty’s blood in the parking lot, Psyche with her goddamn lamp, poking at a good thing until it’s scorched and screaming. There’s only one story, the oldest: “You climb a tree too high for you,” his pop said, as he passed Rust a bottle of whiskey and began to splint his arm, “you best be prepared to fall and get hurt.”

Summary
She does love him; she is sure of it. But she loves him the way she loved Rome when she spent a year there her junior year in college, transfixed by its ancient, terrifying beauty. Even after six months, when the sharp edges of the city’s unfamiliarity grew rounded and soft, she always knew it was not home. He loves her, too, in the bracing, merciless way that the North Atlantic loves the shore, because geography has thrown them together and now they can’t be rid of one another.

Summary
Some little scene sketches from early in Marty and Rust's partnership, and parts of the 1995 investigation. Not in chronological order.
In Louisiana Rust creates his own structure. His work is necessary and not overtly cruel to the larger human organism of which he is a part. He is entitled to the things that allow him to do the work: mattress, cigarettes, books, shoes.
He is not entitled to Marty but has ended up with him anyway. This will backfire.

Summary
Rust glares at him, and for a moment, Marty thinks he’s gonna put up a fight, but he relents, letting Marty take the lead on undressing and cleaning the wound; he moves slowly, despite Rust’s interjections that he ain’t gonna break. The laceration itself is objectively hideous; it’s about seven inches of jagged edges strung so tightly together like the baseballs he saw with the Ragin’ Cajuns at USL. It’s scabbed, painted with dried blood, and still so fresh it’s barely scarring. Yet, in spite of all that, Marty, in some fucked up way, thinks it’s one of the best sights he’s seen in a while. After being surrounded with antlers and portraits of spaghetti men with green ears, after having nightmares about Marie Fontenot and seeing Childress and Carcosa when he closes his eyes, staring at Rust’s serrated skin as he tends to it is a relief. It’s a relief because they’re alive.
Rust and Marty, after everything.

Summary
In the glow of the lighter, watching it dissolve in the pit of the spoon, Rust’s profile is put together like something handsome drawn only from memory, the connective tissue slightly off, lines configuring without anything soft or warm in it. Marty wants to touch that cheekbone. Hit it, maybe. Find out if it’s really as unyielding as it looks.
— the night after Ledoux, Marty and Rust each seek out a different sort of release.
