David Beers is very talented at portraying conflicted people who are trying to make the best of bizarre situations. In all of the stories I have read by him there is almost no black and white. There are, however, an astonishingly high number of shades of gray.Regina Hillen is a prime example. She has a daughter, Amy. She is so terrified that her daughter will make the same mistakes she did that she is horrendously cruel- all in the name of love. But one person's cure is another's poison and the damage inflicted on her daughter runs so deep that even after her death her daughter is convinced that she is being watched.The is a short story that left me thinking long after I finished reading it about evil and the many natures of love.
