    Summary

    When Percy stepped out of the elevator, Hazel wanted to weep.

    His clothing was tattered, hair matted with blood, and he was covered head to toe in golden dust. But he was alive.

    It took her a few minutes to realize that he was alone.

    Before she died, she'd heard reports on the radio about soldiers who came home. Shellshock, they called it, from being in the trenches, the bombs and the bullets and the dead. Hazel had met soldier, once. A man who'd come home to her little town, missing half his leg and most of his mind. The look in his eyes was hauntingly similar to what she saw on her cousin's face.

    Percy was different now. Stronger, maybe. He'd made it through Hell, but not without leaving a piece of him behind.
