The War Hero

by Michael Lieber

To celebrate his birthday, Mr. Lidman and daughter are throwing a small party at their cosy cottage home in the country, only to discover an uninvited stranger amongst the guests. When confronted in private by Lidman, the stranger explains he has been hired to kill him but offers more time as a birthday present. Pale and scared, Lidman proceeds with the happy gathering, mustering a good host facade to a whirling home of drunk party guests. Time is running out, will he be clever enough to survive the night?
