I’m impressed. At 73 pages, this indie novella is expertly constructed and tightly written and boasts a pitch-perfect ending. It isn’t for the faint of heart, though. It contains adult situations and the author himself calls it a “gross little story” (it’s only gross at the end though).
It would make an excellent X-Files episode and is reminiscent of the work of Stephen King (in the best possible sense). Can't wait to see more from Christopher Sweet!
