Amanda Sinclair, a singer-songwriter reeling from her mother’s death, slips between reality and the world of her favorite childhood book. The author’s writing is melodic and poetic, the kind that lingers long after the final page.
Beautiful, original, and quietly powerful.

I entered this short story with high hopes: a best-selling author promising a deadly game of deceit, full of shocks, lies, and suspense. Sadly, I found the execution to be somewhat uneventful, and the ending, even for fiction, was out of place and unbelievable. Unfortunately, this short story didn't add up for me. This is just my opinion, and you might enjoy it.
