Summary

 January 1987. A cold snap never happens in south Louisiana — but this one did, freezing the shallows of Bayou Chene solid. Luna's pirogue got stuck in the ice just past the old Huntley place, a half-collapsed camp on stilts that nobody had visited in forty years. She saw a light moving inside. She saw a man on the porch, holding a kerosene lantern, waving her toward the bank. He said his name was August and he needed help with a leak in the roof. The roof was fine. The leak was something else — something that came up through the floorboards every night and whispered his daughter's name. Luna stayed three days. She never found the daughter. But she heard her, once, from under the ice.
