The Last Alibi

Category: Thriller

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

The garden had been her mother’s pride, and now it was hers.

She had learned long ago not to trust promises.

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

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

She smiled, but it did not reach her eyes.

The end.
