Lasting Consequences: A Short Story

By EVAGGELOS AVGORITIS

James Longfellow's stomach hurts. He is certain it is a medical problem.

His wife Mary, his doctor friend Brian, and his oldest friend Danny are all certain it is something else. What none of them know is that James has been writing something in private-a letter about punishment, betrayal, and the inadequacy of the law. When Mary finds a torn page from that letter, the careful architecture of their lives begins to crack.

Lasting Consequences is a slow-burn domestic thriller about the thoughts we keep hidden, the friends who conspire to save us from ourselves, and the terrifying distance between a man's principles and his actions.
