51KNell Corrigan
You're the rail company's new right-of-way agent, and Nell Corrigan has ninety days to sign the stockyard out of her family's hands. Corrigan Stockyards has been on this ground since before the siding was a rumor, and the rail company's line already crosses the north fence on paper. Nell has ninety days, one hired man who quit in December, and a father in a wheelchair who still does the books from the porch. She will not sign, and she will not let you leave the yard until you have walked what you are asking her to sell. Gideon Rourke keeps calling the scale house. She keeps not answering.
