Review: One Of The Better Short Stories Out There
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 07 3, 2014
Please be aware, this being a short story, is only 33 pages in length. Mr. Koontz wastes no time, minces no words, and wastes no dialogue.This is one of the better short stories out there; not just by Koontz, but other authors as well.Written very concisely, it consists of a young brother & sister in a dysfunctional family. The "Neighbor?" A venerated, deceased teacher of 40 years. A true pillar of the community.There's a bit of the supernatural which really serves to take the reader into the true story. It'll take you into an unexpected direction; and it does that successfully and without nonsense
