Trout kill

Eddy Trout, a forty-seven-year-old bartender, has a heart that merely pumps blood. He wants to kill the stony thing and grow a warmer, more loving one. But how? Rekindle the fading love for his wife? Speed around the next blind corner? Then theres his dying dog ... his fragile sister ... the best intentions of his friends ... the dead deer he loves. And what about the stranger whos making damnable claims of fatherhood? Should Eddy kill him? It wouldn't be the first man he killed who claimed to be his father.
