Our Time by the Clock
No one finds their way to Hell on their own.
There is always someone willing to take your hand.
Their day arrives in the dark, bringing Catherine the realization that the movements of a clock are irrelevant to Time or the outcome of life.
Catherine knew her father was a killer.
She remembered the name of one of the girls.
She knew what each of them looked like.
He had died when she was young, her grandmother had always told her the truth and in the hours after her funeral her father will show her what he and she are capable of.
Catherine and the young girl have not slept.
They are strangers, no names spoken.
Catherine clings to the cold child and wonders what to pray for.
Time to stop,
or End?

Finally, a book with a story within that beautifully intrigues the mind on multiple levels. Truly captivating, “Time by the Clock” is a story for creative, poetic, artistic readers like myself! I was fascinated! I enjoyed and appreciated the overall flow of the book. Some pages flowed so effortlessly that at times I did think I was reading poetry. Yet, that flow contributed and complimented this dark plot wonderfully as I read how the main character, Catherine recall moments in her life. A little eerie at times due to a lingering spirit, however, it increased my curiosity as I anxiously read trying to piece together the truth as to what exactly has happened. How did her dad die? Why did she know so little? Why did her mom not even have a picture of him up? The suspense was killing me, but I enjoyed every moment of it!
