That’ll have to be fixed now, I think, striding towards the barn to feed Juliet’s chickens and the cows. I laugh, watching Ajax racing along the coop fence, stirring the stupid chickens into a flapping frenzy. “Come on, now. Leave them alone. I’m sure Juliet doesn’t let you get away with that.”
It takes only a few minutes to feed, then I make my way down the drive to pick up the newspaper. The front page article makes my blood run cold.
