He tried again and found that he could flex his knees a bit, under the corn.

Like a neon sign, the answer broke through Glenn Maybrook’s fogged mind: those are not your knees!

With a surge of strength, Glenn dug himself out of the slop. He used his hands to free his legs enough that he was able to hoist himself on top of the muck.

And then he scrambled over to whoever else had been dumped in the cage with him.

He began to dig.

Come on, Glenn. You’re a doctor. You felt those cold knees. You know that whoever’s under there, they’re more than “hurt.”

He tossed handfuls of slop behind him, rats scurrying away from the clatter as he hauled lumps of wet, putrid corn at the side of his chicken-wire-and-plywood cage.

It was a few moments until he’d uncovered his cellmate up to the waist, then a few more until he’d dug out his neck.

One final brush was all it took to reveal the corpse’s eyes.

A gasp caught in Glenn’s throat, becoming a nauseous retch.

Dr. Weller.

The town’s former doctor.

He’d looked a lot better in the pictures he’d left hung in his office.

Dr. Weller was buried in here with Glenn.

And Dr. Weller was very, very dead.
