The Nightman

Nightman (noun)
night·​man | \ ˈnītmən
plural nightmen
1: a man who empties privies by night, also known as a "gong-farmer".

Dr. Kareem, a new doctor in London, lives in a flat that may collapse at any moment. The neighbours are vile and, worse than that, the smell- oh, that foul smell! It must be a dead animal, or mould or something blocked in the pipelines, surely? Or is it something else entirely? Something only a man, whose existence is hardly present in any provable records, could explain. A man who worked in shadow, desguised by his occupation, pushed away for his scent, cloaked by the night. Dr. Kareem, a man of Light- he likes to think of himself, begins to wonder if he should search for answers beyond science. In the dark.
