It won’t take you long to consume this short story – it will take even less time for it to consume you … In a high school crowded with kids, Ben fights a solitary battle against a sadistic bully, crushing pressure to achieve ... and a gruesome, menacing shadow bent on stealing his soul. Chris Everheart, author of the riveting young adult novel The League of Delphi, takes a step deeper into the dark with Flicker: a short psycho-thriller and delivers a hauntingly compelling story reminiscent of the styles of the late horror greats Richard Bachman and John Swithen.
