'here & Know'

Our puppy, Jude, was scarcely three months old when he died in the creek that separated the Cravendorf residence from ours. Though I could never muster up any hard proof, I was sure it was Mr. Josef Cravendorf himself who drowned the pup in cold blood.... Josef and his wife Marjorie had arrived in Red Sparrow Falls under suspicious circumstances. "You look too young to be retired," I told them. Apparently, he had been a doctor of some renown, a surgeon in the city, and previously owned a cottage on some nonfunctional farmland just southeast of Erwin. Once, I called him Dr. and he immediately corrected me. "Call me Mr., or–better yet-just call me Josef," he told me.
