Chapter 4: Tess's Dad

Thirty thousand years ago a man sat by a fire and told a wolf about his day. The wolf said nothing. It was the start of a remarkable professional record.

Now Ken walks the Sandstone Trail every morning, and on the hill he is no longer Ken. He is Tess's dad. And somewhere between Jacob's Ladder and Woodhouse Hill he starts talking: about pupils and herons, about being sixty-eight and invisible, and finally about the thing he has never said out loud to anyone. Tess listens. Tess always listens.
