Being that it’s Christmas eve, it seems fitting that the first piece of fiction I publish here is a Christmas story. This standalone is a mini prequel to my novel Restless Spirits which gives a little backstory on a couple of characters. It’s a little incongruous, because that novel is a ghost story, and this is not — here these characters are very much alive. But I hope it strikes a haunting note regardless.
I really loved the story, it was so vivid. I could feel such joy in one little girl while feeling the terrible malice in the other one. I knew something heartbreaking was going to happen. As a parent it's so frustrating to see some parents blindness to the cruelty in their own children. Thank you for the story. Can't wait to read more. Merry Christmas to all.
