Red Harvest #4

by

Sheriff Willoughby was no fool - he knew a murder when he saw one, but he’d never come across a murder weapon before as gigantic as a John Deere S780, a sledge hammer to crack a nut, but there was always a first time and he relished the fresh challenge because a gory homicide spiced up life at the station in contrast to the endless tedium of traffic misdemeanours, marital bust ups or substance abuse.
Calley to his credit had come forward voluntarily but with the prairie and the cab of his harvester awash with blood he hardly had any choice.
