A one-sitting read for almost everyone. Short, descriptive and believable. Ms. Lace’s depiction of Edgar’s flashbacks are deep and intriguing. You can feel the suspense and Edgar’s pain in her selection of words in this brilliant short story!
The story made me want to open a volume of Poe stories and read while the snow was falling this past Christmas.
A great gift idea or book club read also.
