Reccer's notes: I think we all have the fics we just come back to over and over again and this is one of mine. The writing and characterization are fantastic; the case is creepy and scary and difficult and has the weight of history behind it; and the locations and atmosphere are perfection. The research shows here, in the richness and depth of this story, and it remains one of my all time favorites.
[Short excerpt]They come from the north, exhausted by the sprawling highways and overpasses of Silicon Valley. They put miles between them and the cantankerous spirit of a Gold Rush miner who threw them around a bit and went grumbling into his long overdue rest, salted and burned. It is hot in the mountains above Napa but it grows cooler the closer they get to the ocean. Sam takes over the driving somewhere past San Francisco, when Dean finally throws up his hand in disgust at six lanes of traffic and hardly a driver who knows what he's doing.
