The Cold Trail

Category: Thriller

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

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

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

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

A knock at the door changed everything.

He stood at the edge of the cliff, looking down at the waves crashing below.

The morning light filtered through the curtains, painting the room in soft gold.

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

The end.
