The Mirror of the Unseen(Second Person Variation) You wake up in a room that is not yours, though every object in it feels like a memory you've forgotten. The walls are a faded ochre, peeling like sunburnt skin. There is a mirror in the corner, but when you look into it, you don't see your face. You see a blur of motion, a smudge of charcoal against a white background. You don't remember your name. You only remember...0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 31 Visualizações 0 Anterior

The Keeper of the Blackwood WildsThe wind across the Blackwood moors did not blow so much as it hunted, finding every gap in Angus MacAllister's coat, every weakness in the stone walls of the house that had been his family's for three hundred years. He stood at the window of the library, watching fog roll down from the peaks like a slow tide, and wondered whether the dead were happier in their certainty than the living were in...0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 60 Visualizações 0 Anterior

The Long Island SanatoriumThe jazz played from a gramophone in the corner of the newsroom, a thin reedy sound that barely competed with the clatter of typewriters and the murmur of a hundred men deciding what the world should think. I sat at my desk with a cigarette burning down between my fingers and stared at the telegram on the paper in front of me. Eileen Foster, it said. Last seen: Oakcliff Sanatorium, Long Island....0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 24 Visualizações 0 Anterior

The Man Who Listened to the Stars**Youngstown, Ohio** The garage smelled like motor oil and old beer. Frank Miller sat on a milk crate in the corner, listening to static through headphones that had a crack in the left earcup. The telescope was pointed at Cygnus. It always was. He'd been pointing it at Cygnus for seven years. Seven years of static. He took a drink from a beer can. The beer was warm. It always was. He didn't...0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 30 Visualizações 0 Anterior

The Rising WaterI. The water came to the Thorneland plantation on a Thursday in June, which was wrong because the river did not flood in June. The river flooded in April, when the snow melted in the Appalachians and turned the Mississippi into a brown beast that ate its banks. June was for heat and cicadas and the slow decay of things that were once grand. But the river had decided otherwise. I am Bell Thorne....0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 54 Visualizações 0 Anterior

The Observer at Five PointsACT I: THE BOY FROM BROOKLYN I first met James Whitfield in the summer of 1963, when we were both twelve years old and living in the Five Points neighborhood of Manhattan. He was tall for his age, with dark hair and eyes that seemed to take in everything at once. I was smaller, scrappier, the kind of kid who got into fights he couldn't win and then wrote about them in a notebook he kept under...0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 4 Visualizações 0 Anterior

The Pattern in the BlueprintThe first time I met Edward Hartwell, I thought he was the kind of man who would return your shopping cart at the supermarket. Dr. Helena Cross, military psychologist, London School of Economics. That's my title, at least. My actual job, as described in the contract signed by a security consulting firm called Meridian Global, was to conduct a psychological evaluation of a "high-profile defense...0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 23 Visualizações 0 Anterior

The Pattern in the StaticI. The first time Elena noticed it, she thought it was a coincidence. Patient 7—David Ross, forty-one, former radio enthusiast, diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia—sat in her office and described a pattern he had heard in radio static. Not metaphorically. Literally. A sequence of tones, repeating at irregular intervals, hidden beneath the white noise of unused frequencies. "It's not random,"...0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 31 Visualizações 0 Anterior

The Architect of SilenceThe city of Oakhaven was a masterpiece of symmetry and stone, a place where every street was a perfect arc and every building a testament to the order of the State. In Oakhaven, silence was not the absence of sound, but a civic duty. The citizens spoke in hushed tones, their lives choreographed by the Great Clock in the center of the plaza, which dictated when to wake, when to work, and when to...0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 91 Visualizações 0 Anterior
