In Issue No. 4, a pale blue Amphicar, a blue clinic folder, a Panama hat, and a crowd that laughs too early ask the same question: when does survival become permission to step back from the edge? Six deaths across Texas trace danger through bulls, spillways, hoods, dinner tables, empty pools, physician-assisted paperwork, and one final drive toward low water.
