Evan realized he'd been putting the moment off, but when he thought about it he wasn't sure why. He'd picked up all the animosity towards Hendricks coming from Ray Clements and Linda. Subconsciously he was siding with them because Hendricks sounded such a degenerate. More preconceived ideas; he couldn't argue with Faulkner about that. He wanted to talk to Hendricks before he talked to Faulkner again, so he didn't have much choice but to drive straight out there. Hendricks' place surprised the hell out of Evan. All he knew about him was that he'd been the school bus driver. If he'd been asked he would have said that Hendricks probably lived in a trailer park like Faulkner. What he actually lived in was a beautiful old farmhouse surrounded by three or four acres of land with a couple of well kept barns standing off to the side. There was a hand-painted sign that read Beau Terre and an old-fashioned farmhouse porch which wrapped expansively around the house. It was about as different to Schneider's farmhouse as you could imagine.
