This was an ebook download file exclusive to those signing up to Anna’s newsletter, read on 11/03/2024. This is a gothic style short story. Margaret and her husband have been through a lot. She nursed him through illness in India on their honeymoon. Years later she finds herself in a similar position. The darkness within her seems to darken her judgement to choose a different future. With all short-stories I had a lot of questions that went unanswered, leaving me a little baffled.
