THIS IS A THRILLER SHORT STORY (8800 words)
Chinatown, San Francisco. A serial killer prowls. The victims are always women, with their eyes gouged out and index fingers missing. Rachel – bartender, virgin – steps into this uncertain future, only to encounter a man who has been watching her from afar. But something shocking happens that neither of them could have foreseen.
Praise for A.R. Hunt's (previously writing as Xeus)
“... an adept writer, weaving the darker elements of society, serial killers, the dangers of a woman walking alone at night, greed, lust and their five accompanying sins to great effect ...
The Star (Bookshelf)
“ . . . a particularly vicious twist at the end. See if you can spot it coming”
The Star (Reading Room)
“A portrayal of what happens when you merge paranoia with everyday life. If horror stories are your cup of tea, be sure to grab a copy of this.”
Borders
“Sensational and thought-provoking”
Galaxie
“Will entertain and keep you turning the pages”

About the author
Artemis Hunt
25 books100 followersArtemis Hunt has a husband who thinks all fiction is nonsense and all writers of fiction should get their heads checked for situational delusions. At any one time, they have 16 to 20 dogs, many of suspicious virtue.
Artemis frequently wishes she has telekinesis, so she doesn’t have to lift a finger to change the room temperature. She’s constantly glued to her computer, which serves as her gateway to her friends, books, movies, TV serials and sometimes husband, even though they’re sitting on the same bed two feet apart.
