Sometimes when the door opened, it coincided with another door at the end of the hallway opening. When that happened, if Desset pressed himself against the far wall, he could see outside. The glimpse never lasted more than a couple of seconds, but even the briefest image of yellow sunlight on white pavement [...]]]></description>

As Serrilius mechanically executed the sorting rules, his parchment thin skin glowed sallow in the candlelight.  He had once been quite muscular, but had grown lean and sinewy over the years.

“Mommy?  Are we going to die?”
Veronica let out a faint sigh and closed her eyes for a moment to collect her thoughts.  She closed the book she was reading to her son and quietly laid it on the bed.  Suddenly Dr. Seuss no longer seemed very important.  She [...]]]></description>

A frightful creature is said to take abode in the ruins of Castle Redlach, and while many dismiss these claims as the preposterous products of common superstition and myth, no man alive will venture within so much as a mile of the place. Travelling merchants avoid the long deserted mountain roads winding past [...]]]></description>

Lesley Stampridge had never in all her years as the Trachsel County chief medical examiner seen someone in their late 20s looking as young as a teenager, but if she knew anything, she knew her teeth. This John Doe was 28 years old if he was a day, possibly 29, pending further [...]]]></description>
