Unresolved?: A Short Story by J S Morey

By John Morey

Beneath the peaceful charm of a Midlands village, a past refuses to be buried.

Following their wedding in the village of Blaby, Leicestershire, join Eric and Maggie on their honeymoon in St Ives, a seemingly idyllic start to their married life. However, the Cornish air is soon thick with unspoken questions surrounding the unresolved and suspicious death of Maggie's former fianc .

Whilst Maggie and Eric's new life together begins in Blaby - a picture of rural tranquility. - beneath the surface lies the mystery - a shadow that threatens to darken their newlywed bliss. Unresolved? explores the delicate balance between seeking happiness and confronting the burdens of the past. How much can one build anew when haunted by what cannot be undone?

The author, John Morey, masterfully blends lighthearted moments with an underlying tension, posing the question: can the promise of a new beginning truly outrun the shadows of the past?

This short story delves into the complexities of guilt, memories set aside, and the elusive nature of resolution.

While offering an entertaining read in its own right, Unresolved? also serves as an intriguing introduction to Eric and Maggie, who later embark on a very different adventure in the author's full novel, Wild Hearts Roam Free, a modern Western set in Wyoming.

Author's Note: Short stories can often be gateways to larger worlds. Unresolved? is one such gateway, offering a standalone narrative that beautifully connects to the characters and their earlier experiences explored in Wild Hearts Roam Free.
