I really enjoyed this short story by Evans Light, who also wrote the wonderful horror collection 'Screamscapes'. This dark little ditty is set in a dismal town called Barkersville, and opens with a group of friends committing horrendous acts of vandalism, to ensure the town fathers, if not the very town itself, pays for the violation of the lead character's girlfriend. Since this is a short story, that's told from the main character's point of view, I don't want to say more, for fear of giving away some great twists in the narrative. Suffice it to say, that a story from Evans Light, will rarely take you down a path you planned on, or are comfortable with. This is an intense tale of love and revenge, that in the end, will hit you like a ton of bricks, and wondering why you haven't heard more about this fantastic author.I wouldn't recommend this for children, or for those uncomfortable with violence. But if you're a fan of the horror genre, or just enjoy a well written and thought out story, this is for you. Bone Appetit!!
