Jessie and his Pa are part of a special breed of farm folk who live, breathe, and co-exist with dust and crops.  They're practical, even putting animals out of their misery when they turn rabid - even though it hurts to squeeze that trigger.  In Flesh & Blood, the two will face the challenge of zombies and the need to place the bullet between the eyes of those they knew as neighbors.  It's got to be done.  And even if it's one of them as well.  It's got to be done.  Flesh & Blood is underlaid with a gentleness and compassion in a world of rabid zombie attacks and uncertain futures.  The story is a beautiful piece of writing that strokes the contours of the heart.  All I can say is - Thank you, Jerry, for writing this wonderful short story.
