"'Did you see that?' Danny asked. His head was out the side window watching the snow shoot off the side of the scraper onto the verge.'It's only snow, Danny. Don't get overexcited.''No, no.' He shook his head and pulled it back in the cab, water dripped from his face and his hair was dabbled with snow. 'Stop the motor, I saw something, in the snow.''Can't stop, I'll lose momentum,' Peter said. 'It was probably Santa starting his rounds.''No,' Danny paused as if what Peter had said was a genuine guess. 'It looked more like one of his elves.' Peter smiled at this but Danny wasn't joking, his face was ashen, and his eyes wide.'"Brrr! And it wasn't just the mountains of snow and dripping icicles outside my window that made me shiver.This is a nice, atmospheric tale, probably best read during the misery of an unending winter."In the corner of his eye he glimpsed through the driving snow; a figure, just one, running, sprinting at the side of him. When he tried to look at it directly, it disappeared."A gripping, suspenseful story, slightly marred by punctuation mistakes, numerous grammatical errors and a few jarring tense changes.One thing's for sure, this story will make you glad for the chance to spend Christmas with your relatives...even the annoying ones.
