Walk the Wheat — John Mantooth

Two brothers take a walk on the dark side of the wheat field and discover that some bonds are stronger than death. From Shoebox Train Wreck, this short story is one in a collection of sixteen genre-bending tales set against a backdrop of sudden violence and profound regret, and populated by characters whose circumstances and longings drive them to the point of no return . . . and sometimes even further.
