    Summary

    But then the woman exclaims “Freddy?” and things start to shift in her mind. Her high school nickname unearths memories buried very deep down indeed. Of smoking under the bleachers with John Booth and Samuel Washington, of having a new girlfriend almost every week, of getting detention with John Walker definitely every week. Of her best friend’s impressionable younger sister always wanting to hang out with them and being really, really obvious about the crush she was harboring.

    That younger sister has done a lot of growing up.

    “Hey there, Little Walker.” 

    -

    In the aftermath of her aunt's passing, Anne Lister packs up the shiny, interesting life that she made for herself in the big city and returns to the sleepy little town that she hails from. In it, she finds much more than grief waiting for her.
