The Butcherbird

There’s a grotesque string of homicides in Baltimore and Elijah Burton keeps waking up in strange places.

Plagued by nightmares of the house fire that killed his son, Eli becomes obsessed with prosecuting a local vigilante who used excessive force against a minor. Taking advantage of his sleepless nights, Eli uncovers the “hero’s” illegal surveillance and ties to criminal activity. It’s an open-and-shut case until the defense offers up a plea deal:

Drop the charges. In exchange, the defendant will destroy the photos of Eli murdering the men who killed his son.

As concerning evidence mounts and his coworkers begin to suspect there’s a deeper connection to the string of deaths, Eli must find the evidence to prove he’s not the killer or lose his mind trying.

So, when they were rested, Dorothy picked up her basket and they started along the grassy bank, to the road from which the river had carried them. It was a lovely country, with plenty of flowers and fruit trees and sunshine to cheer them, and had they not felt so sorry for the poor Scarecrow, they could have been very happy.

White Hare

The Lion and the Woodman both shook their heads, for they did not know. So they sat down upon the bank and gazed wistfully at the Scarecrow until a Stork flew by, who, upon seeing them, stopped to rest at the water's edge.
