The Cold Trail

Category: Thriller

The map was old, its edges frayed, but the path it showed was unmistakable.

She had not expected to see him again, not after all these years.

She smiled, but it did not reach her eyes.

He was the kind of man who kept his word, even when it cost him.

The sword was heavier than she expected, but she did not lower it.

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

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

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

The end.
