On opening night of the stage play, Perkins' Ghost, at the Astor Theatre, a shocking murder had occurred, leaving many residents of the sleepy hollow to suspect that the murderer might have been that of the ghost of Simeon Perkins. With virtually no clues to follow, apart from the unexplained sightings of a Perkins look-alike, clairvoyants, fortune cookies, intuitions and a seemingly odd connection between the murder or murderer and the Kings Orange Rangers. Sergeant Hill wondered if the murderer would ever be found.  
The little town of Liverpool, Nova Scotia, once booming with industry, had settled into itself. Ancient trees lined the streets, dappling patterns on the Colonial and Victorian homes. It was a quiet place, where retirees settled and where tourists went to soak up Canadian history or to sit alongside the Mersey River, watching as it glided by while listening to birds twittering in the trees. Nothing newsworthy had ever happened in Liverpool until a murder occurred.All Rights Reserved

She's the sweet, honest, dependable, pretty twin. Don't believe me? Ask my lunatic of a mother. "You look like Bell; try acting like her." If Bell had to save me, she'd be all organized with sticky notes and a compass. Me? What do I have but OCD, a short fuse and a cynical attitude. Oh, but I can run--fast. I can outrun any boy in my school. Well, when there were schools. As of today, all schools are closed indefinitely. Thanks evil, New Regime!

The Last Case by lightmage1

"As he reached the finality of his conclusions, was he introduced to the concept of memories, that defined one's existence. And as the time revealed itself, he no longer believed in beginnings or endings." When William returns from the eastern woods, he is told about the deaths of four outlanders happened in the renouned, old mansion in the east of town of Zora. Initially hesitant to entertain the curiosity- not willing to plung into his connection concealed within the mansion's history-his resolve wavers. That is, after his encounter with a once-mighty warrior, now enslaved and haunted by his past from the far East of the world. That changes everything. °°° This is the story closest to me and the very reason I even considered of learning the art of storytelling. This story is everything to me.

Dare by SiennaMin

15 friends, one house, and a journal. All seemed normal but was it really? A man in a black hoodie with a white pale mask is upon them, watching their every movement. But how? Friends get killed, injured, or even gone missing. It seems as though everyone apart from those 15 have disappeared without a trace. Was it an apocalypse? - "What's this?" Brooklyn asked, picking up a book with yellow blank pages and a leather cover. All 14 friends turned their eyes to her examining the book, one got up. "It's mine, sorry I left it there." Alex said grabbing the book, more like snatching. "Where'd you get it?" Sienna asked, noticing him acting different. "On the road, came with a weird pencil and note." He replied. "What note?" Ryan asked trying to grab the book, but Alex had moved back. - 'When you pour out your thoughts, it can be very dangerous because it feeds the unknown.'

Eleven Shorts +1 by ShireenJeejeebhoy

Eleven short stories, posted one story at a time: Two little girls, in two different eras, yearning for their parents. A shy girl in a new country. An uncertain woman dancing back into life after the death of a spouse. A thrilling short short. Mother and son argue over what is dignity, what value her life. A creepy little short that won an honourable mention in the Hart House Short Story Contest. The bureaucrat and his ever-so-busy day. A party that glitters and excludes ones who don't fit. A daughter rebels. A mother and her youngest, a conflict without end, that only death can solve? Murder stalks the homeless in Toronto's innocent streets. I hope you enjoy these stories! The ePub and Kindle versions include a bonus romance, written in 1919 by my grandmother, about two people who have to face danger to find each other. There's a story in that: My mother’s sister and mother liked to write poetry. My mother’s mother was a stellar speller and a killer Scrabble player. But I had no idea until recently that as an adolescent she had written and submitted stories for publication. I don’t think her queries were successful. And it wasn’t long before she got married and started riding the Wall of Death as a living with her husband. And so in honour of that century-ago effort of hers, I reproduced in the ePub, as she typed it errors and all (or what I suppose to be errors as grammar is different between countries and eras), the story my mother – her daughter – found recently in an old envelope postmarked from London 6:15 pm 23 SP 19 (23 September 1919) to Miss D. Searby. Purchase "Eleven Shorts +1" at Smashwords or Amazon to read it. https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/82913 http://www.amazon.com/Eleven-Shorts-1-ebook/dp/B005ICFNWK Copyright 1988 to 2013.
