The Kind Worth Killing (38 page)

Cheers darling,

Daddy

Oh, PS. I forgot to tell you in my last letter, but I have some bad news. The old Bardwell farm next door has been sold to a teenaged hedge fund manager from the city. He's leveling the place and building a sort of weekend flophouse with about fifty-seven rooms. The bulldozers have begun to arrive. I'm only telling you because I know you loved that little meadow next to the farm and I'm afraid they're going to tear the whole thing up tomorrow. Your mother has suddenly become an outraged environmentalist. Sorry for the bad news. For all I know you're wondering what the hell I'm even talking about. See you soon, Lil. Daddy loves you, and always will, no matter what.
