The Regal Laurel Egg is missing, and only Nathan Strowse knows the full story. The recent death of his father weighing heavily on his mind, he attempts to strike one last deal with a woman he picked up at an antiques fair. He wants to go straight now, and become the kind of man that his father would be proud of, but can he pull it off before the net closes in on him?
The Easter Egg is well-paced and suspenseful, keeping the reader guessing right to the very end. Featuring a strong blend of mystery and intrigue, the story hooked me right away. I finished the story all too quickly and was left wanting more!
I really liked the concept of this story as well - it's completely original and a real credit to the writer's imagination and creativity. The twist was unexpected and surprising, cleverly executed especially when you consider the short length of the story.
