"Vermin" is a ultra short tale of horror from author Allison M. Dickson. This Kindle e-book is 30 Kb download and was free at the time of writing this review.SPOILERAn old dilapidated house has just been sold and two exterminators have been contracted to clean the place up before the new owners move in. Unbeknown to them there is a reason that this rotting structure has been vacant and strangely unvandalized  for over two decades. A tale where the main character takes that one step too far...he of course doesn't know it, but to the reader it is so painfully obvious.END SPOILERSThis tale can be read in all of 10 or so minutes, but don't let its brevity fool you...this is a horror story of the highest quality. Well written and superbly paced, it will have the hair on the nape of your neck standing on end.Great cover art...fits the mood perfectly.Once again Amazon Kindle has gifted its readers with an author who has written a gem of a story...a story that I would have other-wised missed. An author whose works I will actively seek out.  Many thanks Amazon!Easily 5 Stars.Ray NicholsonMy thanks to Amazon friend Don Blankenship for bring this fine small work to my attention.
