Stow

by B.P. Gregory

A young girl gazes down at a body shattered on the quiet suburban pavement. What desperation would drive anyone to risk such a horrible death? Who would stow away?

The author was always fascinated by what could be contained in a brief moment. This urban fantasy is part of a suite of short science fiction, fantasy and horror stories by BP Gregory, each its own little maelstrom of human suffering and longing. In it Guntarc's friend from earlier short story Promise struggles on, hurt, limping but still determined.

Promise can be enjoyed alone or as part of Cacophony: Collected Short Stories Volume One which is available in print. Stow can be enjoyed alone or as part of Orotund: Collected Short Stories Volume Two, which is also available in print.
