is first mentioned in the novel The Boy Who Came In From The Cold when Todd Burton uses one provided by Gabe Richards to make dinner. The meal goes to impress Peter Wagner.
It wasn’t shrink-wrapped, like the ones he’d seen since moving to the city, but was contained in a paper bag instead. A label proclaimed it was a “Carlisle Free Range Chicken.” All natural. “Raised and grown as a chicken should be.”
In other words, raised on a country farm. And raised at the edge of the universe as he was, local farm chickens were all Todd had known. There was a difference. He could taste it. He hadn’t had a chicken that didn’t taste “wrong” since he’d moved to Kansas City. This would be a delight.
He noticed the price and winced.
