I downloaded this gem of a short story a short while ago, but only had time to read it this weekend. Two words, holy cow!!! Up until now, most of the short stories I've read were preludes to a series, so more like a character intro, but without a beginning, middle and end. Not so with Pieces. The conclusion blew me away. Regina Pucket delivered the story of a woman who suffered a lifetime of abuse at the hands of her husband, and she may have snapped. When detectives question her about the death of her husband, we are left to wonder. Did she do it, or not? With the turn of each page, I kept going back and forth on whether or not I believed she did. With the unforgettable ending, how he ended up dead no longer seemed to matter.
