"Laura" by E.H. James may be a short story but when you turn that final page you will feel that you have read a full length novel. And if you are a "Twilight Zone" fan then you will love "Laura".George has had a couple of drinks at his retirement party but not enough to impair his driving home. It's a cold, wet night and as he is driving down a desolate road when he comes upon a young girl standing in the rain without a coat on. Of course he stops and offers her a ride, even giving her his coat to warm up. He tries to have a conversation with her as it is the polite thing to do but all she does is stare back at him. After he makes several attempts to engage her in conversation, without warning she jerks the door open and hops out. After he gets the car to a complete stop he watches as she steps upon a bridge, yanks her necklace off and drops it into the water below. He takes his eyes off of her for a split second and when he turns around she is gone. He races to the bridge to look for her and but she has vanished. When he can't find her he gets back into his car and continues on his way home thinking how strange the girl was and wondering where she went. Soon he comes upon the "Old Time Café" and decides to stop. What awaits him is even more perplexing and astonishing than his encounter with the peculiar girl.If you are a fan of such stories as the "Twilight Zone" then you will enjoy "Laura" By E.H. James. She has quite the gift for story telling and even though this is a short story you won't be disappointed although you may find yourself back on Amazon looking for more stories by this gifted storyteller.The KBR received a free copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.
