Dark Tales Of Sorrow And Despair

By Jack Darby

The villagers stand huddled at the edge of the river, frozen by the sight before them.

Horrific. Inexplicable. Monstrous.

Who would do such a thing?

The townspeople have become used to vagrants lurking in their streets since the fall of the Soviet Union, while witless officials shake their heads at mounting unsolved crimes. But the river sees everything. The drunks, and the abusers. The poachers and thieves. The children who walk into the twilight, and never return.

So many secrets trapped in its dark, icy depths, now all rising to the surface.

Up river, Sasha Karpov wrestles with the past; those times he'd rather forget, and the memories that leave his body flushed and sparking with excitement. He's not a bad person, so he says, but his shameful secrets will go with him to the grave.
Unless of course, the river speaks for him.
