Within their borders, the aftermath of a murder lingers in unexpected ways. A marriage disintegrates. A waitress dies. A flood threatens. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith dark humor and a direct gaze, Battiste explores the inscrutable and the mundane, uncovering the potential for catastrophe in both.
