"I mean, it wasn't a very big trailer," Eddie says, laughing. "But, nah, Uncle Wayne had a cot set up in the main room. When I got there, he insisted I take the bedroom."

Eddie had always felt sort of bad about it, especially as his uncle got older and his back got worse. No matter what he said, though, Wayne had just brushed him off. He had always been good to Eddie, better than his parents had ever managed to be.

"Something I should probably know first," Eddie echoes, grinning over at Jules. "Very mysterious."
