From award-winning novelist Douglas Clegg, comes a short story that begins with the discovery of a strange stain on a t-shirt — and grows into a threat against a man and his only son. The story is approximately 5600 words in length.
When Jason picks up some souvenirs for his young son, Kyle, he doesn't know that the t-shirt that soon becomes Kyle's favorite brings with it a terrible stain — of blood.
Or is Kyle being bullied at school? Or is the nanny possibly hurting the boy? Because something caused that stain — and while Jason and his wife Amy are working hard to generate a wonderful life, something is terribly wrong at home.
This short story was originally published in Cemetery Dance Magazine #67.
