In "We Live in Water", a legal professional comes back to a corrupt North Idaho town to find the father who vanished 30 years earlier. In "Anything Helps", a homeless man must "go to cardboard" to raise enough money to buy his child the new Harry Potter reserve. In "Virgo", an area newspaper editor will try to get back at his superstitious ex-girlfriend by screwing with her horoscope. Along with the collection's final account changes slyly from a portrait of Walter's hometown into a moving contemplation of the times.
