The innocent
stranger
Peter was deep in his thoughts, and might have even been taking a nap, when the sound of an approaching boat brought him back to reality. Maybe it was his friend who had promised to join him or someone else on the river enjoying the day, which wasn’t unusual. But, as they neared his blind he could see that it wasn’t his anticipated friend, and became annoyed when they pulled up into his decoys and turned off their motor.
Standing up, Peter smiled and raised his hand to wave at his visitor. Perhaps it was someone else who had come to join him, or just someone who had lost their way.
He immediately knew something was wrong. The visitor wasn’t waving or smiling – he was pointing his shotgun at Peter’s head.
It was over in an instant – the blast from the visitor’s shotgun removed all of Peter’s face and most of his head. This day of duck hunting ended early… and violently.
When Peter didn’t return home as planned, alerts from the family sent searchers out into the flooded woods and fields. Despite their efforts, it would be two days before they found his body.
