Gallows Pole

The hangman has no mercy.

He lives on the fringes where the people want him: where the stain of death can’t sully their happy homes.

His duty is the law, but the law can’t give him what he wants.

Others tried to bribe him. Others tried to beg.

And if Emmat Bird can’t find some way to stop the executioner, her brother will swing from his gallows.

Just like all the others.

Emmat tries to fool the hangman.

She fails.

Emmat tries to fight the hangman.

She loses.

Emmat makes a bargain.

She’s his.

She could run in the night, but the hangman knows her secret.

The hooded man knows who she is and what she’s done.

He can make things much, much worse.
