Village of Shadyside 1900. The candle burned low as Nora continued to write

T he candle burned low as Nora continued to write. She dreaded the moment when the candle would sputter and die.

But even more she dreaded the dawn.

She glanced at the page she had just written and sighed. If only Simon had been right, she thought. If only it had all stopped right there. Then everything would be different. Perhaps I might even be happy now, living with the man I love. Maybe he would still be alive ….

She broke off her thoughts and wiped the tears from her eyes. There is no time for crying now, she told herself. I have much more to write.

The story is far from over.

For now comes the tale of Simon Fear—the most horrifying chapter of all.
