By Blood And By Dirt

Luther is twelve years old. His mother is dead. His father is gone. He has a knife, an empty house, and no particular reason to keep breathing except that dying would mean God wins. The Wretches' Hollow is no place for a boy. Lucky for Luther, he stopped being a boy a long time ago. This is not a story about hope. It is a story about what happens when the world grinds people down to their worst and most honest selves. And what they choose to do with what's left.
