The Perfect Stranger

Category: Thriller

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

A knock at the door changed everything.

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

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.

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

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.
