A young woman unexpectedly shows up at a remote Forest Service fire lookout; a fly-fishing guide is stranded with a cowboy in a Montana Greyhound bus station during a blizzard; an Afghanistan war veteran struggles with PTSD and a decades-long family conflict with a family across the lake; a hot shot crew firefighter wards off her demons with backbreaking work until a fire catches up with her; a son tries to honor his parent's last wishes to dispose of their ashes on their old family farm, only to be stymied by the current owner. Caught in the grandeur and sweep of nature, the characters in Greyhound Cowboy and Other Stories experience revelation, camaraderie, relationships on the brink, and danger. In his perceptive debut, Ken Post peeks into frailty, confrontation, and friendship, illuminating the fascinating and fragile details that make up our lives.
