The boot prints changed before the trees thinned. Same tread, sharper edges. Water still pooled in the heels, gleaming wet. I crouched and touched one. Moisture clung to my fingertip. Minutes ahead, not hours. I wiped my hand on my pants and listened. Birds and insects filled the air, the canopy creaking overhead. Everything sounded right, and that was what bothered me.
