Running
from the cops had worked so far, but for how much longer no one knows. He is
getting closer to his target deep in the woods around Long Boat Creek.
Hopefully, the shack that was his late uncle’s place, set up for these kind of
situations, is still standing deep in the woods. It would also really help if
nobody has been messing with the old place.
First,
he has to get there with nobody seeing him. The problem he has at the moment is
one Libby Freeman. She is also in the woods. She has a shotgun. She has
questions. So many questions.
The
very good “Nobody’s Business” short story appears in the Strand Magazine Issue
LXII 2020 along with tales by Shirley Jackson, David Marcum, Thomas Perry,
and various other features. Available by subscription and single issues at https://strandmag.com/
