The Last Alibi

Category: Thriller

The train pulled out of the station with a long, mournful whistle.

It was the kind of night when secrets refused to stay buried.

The fire had burned down to embers, but neither of them moved to stoke it.

The letter was still on the table, unopened, as it had been for three days.

He had been waiting for her for what felt like an eternity.

A knock at the door changed everything.

The stars that night seemed closer than they had any right to be.

There were stories told of this place, and none of them ended well.

The end.
