This intriguing short story is filled with plenty of drama and suspense.  The protagonist, John Thomas or JT, is an adolescent boy with a dog, Rufus, an overbearing older sister, Mary Beth, and a secret crush on an older boy, Tommy Lee.  The antagonist (who shall remain unnamed for now, but you'll find out who it is if you read the story) seems to have an obsession where JT is concerned and a warped moral code.  If you like a story with plenty of action, intrigue, foreboding, and terror, then this short story is for you.  Just click on the link and sit back to enjoy a thrilling and suspenseful roller coaster ride.

Building tension is not easy, but you'll find it here in this steamy, sexy, yet also innocent kind of coming of age story. The author gets you inside the heads of the characters, and it works. Check it out... it's fun in all kinds of ways. Cheers!
