RUST AND BONEThe radio was broken. It had been broken for six months. Tony Ferguson knew this because he had tried to fix it three times and failed each time, and each failure was slightly more embarrassing than the last because his father kept asking him about it. "It's just a connection," Tony said the third time, holding the back panel in one hand and a screwdriver in the other, neither of which was...0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 1 Views 0 Vista previaPlease log in to like, share and comment!

The Hermit of the HollowsThe bayou did not accept newcomers; it merely tolerated them until it found a way to swallow them whole. Silas lived in a house that was more rot than wood, perched on stilts over a black, mirrored stretch of water where the cypress trees wept gray moss like funeral shrouds. For forty years, Silas had been the ghost of the Hollows. The townspeople in the nearby village spoke of him in...0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 3 Views 0 Vista previa

The Iron WallThe Mississippi was high that season, a brown river moving slow and angry through the Delta, carrying the weight of everything upstream. Will stood on the levee and listened to it. Not with his ears — with his head. He could feel the radar installation 40 miles away in his teeth, a low vibration that was less sound than pressure, like standing inside a bell that had been struck and was still...0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 3 Views 0 Vista previa

The Starlight SoireeThe Starlight Soiree The champagne tasted like liquid gold, which was exactly how it should taste at a party on Long Island where the guests wore diamonds worth more than most men's houses and discussed the weather in tones usually reserved for matters of state. It was June 1925, and the Jazz Age had arrived in all its glittering, desperate splendor. Charles Aldrich stood on the terrace...0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 5 Views 0 Vista previa

The Dark WoodAct I: The Summons The fog came down from the moors at four in the morning and swallowed the whole hill. Arthur Pendelton stood at his window in Trinity College and watched it consume the garden paths, the elm trees, the iron gate—each thing disappearing into a world of white and silence. He had been awake since midnight, waiting. The letter had come that afternoon, sealed with black wax and...0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 9 Views 0 Vista previa

The Weight of WhiteThe Weight of White The envelope arrived on a day so humid the paper felt damp before it was even opened. Meridian Beaumont stood in her shop on Royal Street, the smell of magnolia and old wood hanging in the air like a prayer that nobody had answered in decades, and held the cream envelope with the LeBlanc crest pressed into the wax seal. Silas watched her from the door. He had not entered the...0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 6 Views 0 Vista previa

The Adaptation of the DisplacedThe first generation learns to survive. The second generation learns to forget. The third generation learns to remember, because forgetting has become a luxury it can no longer afford. Leo was the third generation, and he remembered everything. He remembered his grandfather's hands. They had been dark and knotted, the knuckles swollen from a lifetime of carving wood that was harder than bone....0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 1 Views 0 Vista previa

The Wolf at BlackmoorThe rabbit was the first thing Evan found.It lay in the snow near the edge of the mine shaft, one ear torn, one eye missing, the fabric stained dark with blood that had already begun to freeze. Eight-year-old Patrick had carried it everywhere for three years. Evan had stitched its ear twice. Now it lay in the snow as if Patrick had simply stepped over it and kept walking.The tracks led into the...0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 7 Views 0 Vista previa

The Last TetherThe Last Tether Helena Voss knew she was the last person on Ceres-9. She had known it for three years, two months, and fourteen days. The count was automatic now, the way counting breaths was automatic—she did not think about it, she just did it, three billion breaths and counting, each one slightly more precious than the last because the atmosphere was getting thinner with every passing week....0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 11 Views 0 Vista previa

V-01: The Last Breath of London(Victoria Melancholy Style) The fog of 1888 did not merely drift through the streets of London; it breathed. It was a thick, sulfurous shroud that clung to the cobblestones and muffled the screams of the city. For Evelyn, the fog was a mirror of her own existence—blurred, suffocating, and devoid of light. She had once been the pride of the Scotland Yard archives, a woman whose mind could weave...0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 9 Views 0 Vista previa

Blood on the Kitchen FloorThe apartment in Brooklyn smelled like boiled cabbage and old cigarettes, the way all of Frank O'Sullivan's apartments had smelled since Catherine could remember. She stood in the doorway of his kitchen and looked at the table where the three of them—Mike, Tony, and Sal—sat with their coffee cups and their empty faces, the way men sit when they have nothing left to say. Frank was dead. The...0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 3 Views 0 Vista previa

THE QUIET ENDFrank O'Malley woke at six in the morning. It was not an alarm clock that woke him. It was the habit of waking at six, established twelve years ago in a base camp in the Ho Chi Minh Trail and never broken, even after he broke everything else. He lay in the dark. The apartment was small—one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen that was really just a corner with a stove and a refrigerator the size of...0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 10 Views 0 Vista previa
