A simple job escorting cargo couldn't have gone any worse. Fran's been left to die in the wilderness with no horse, no food, and not even a drop of water. After three days, he figures he's a goner. But a native named Toto saves him. Neither of them understand the other's language, but Toto manages to get Fran back to town. But without words, how can Fran thank Toto for his help? And is gratitude the only reason Toto consumes his thoughts?
