Chapter 17: Haverford and Son
Dexter Haverford arrived in Hartwell on Tuesday in a mud-colored pickup with a boat trailer still hitched to it.
Dash met him at the Boathouse lot with Wilder on his right side and Rory a respectful distance behind.
His father climbed down from the cab, six feet of weather in a canvas work coat, and looked at the three of them.
"You're thin," he told Dash.
"I'm fine."
"You're thin and you're in the paper." Dexter pulled a folded page from his coat. "A woman at the yard faxed it. She says you're in a clip."
"It's not a clip," Dash said, and stopped.
His father was looking at Wilder.
Wilder stood very straight, with his hair pushed back and his aids showing.
"This is Wilder Frye," Dash said, turning so his face was clear. "Wilder, this is my father, Dexter."
"Sir," Wilder said.
"Dexter." The old man put out a hand. "Nobody calls me sir but the bank."
They shook.
Dexter held on a moment longer than he needed to, looking at Wilder's face with flat gray eyes.
