    Summary

    It's January 1995 and the weather hasn’t dipped below sweltering since last year. Rustin Cohle is nearing thirty-two, vacillating between addiction and despair as the Louisiana damp slinks down his back and intertwines her sweating fingers with his. He’s obsessed; obsessed with this case, obsessed with his stored memories, obsessed with the antlers and the devil traps and the missing women and children along the bayou.

    Iris Dumont is looking at him, he’s looking through her skull and to the shelves of liquor behind her. Rust Cohle is an animal; he is cold and hungry but she’s circling overhead and waiting for him to lay down. To rest before she tears into the hard flesh of his body.

    Summary

    He’s tense like he’s ready to bolt for the door to chase down the new lead but looks to the girl first. Whatever is communicated silently between them isn’t made privy to Marty before she nods, slips off her seat, and comes behind the bar to finish putting the beers in the fridge. Marty is sure he’s not meant to see how Rust ruffles her hair in lieu of a goodbye.

    He thinks about it, waiting in his car, how Rust didn’t introduce them. A man out of practice with marking his territory.

    Summary

    Audrey doesn’t know how she ended up here—face throbbing, upper body bent over the steering wheel of her beat-up Honda in the driveway of her estranged father’s tiny rancher. She throws the burner phone back into her messy pile of clothes, heart is still pounding. The sweat covering her hands is now smeared all over the steering wheel and mixed with dried blood from her previously weeping wound. The inside of the car smells like copper and black ice air freshener.

     

    Audrey breaks the flat circle.

    Summary

    Rust leans over the bar, talking to her quiet like anyone was next to them to hear. “What are you doin’ here?”

    Oddly enough, she smiles. “I was hoping you recognized me.”

    As though he could forget.
