Sometime After Midnight - River J Hopkins - Bog

SOMETIME AFTER MIDNIGHT is a collection of 26 poems and short stories that show the journey of the author's struggles from despair to hope. Each chapter represents a time after midnight-hitting rock bottom-until day breaks. Follow her trek in verse and fiction from the depths of darkness to the joy of living in the light of hope. In THAT HOUSE IS DEATH, Aiden Burroughs finds more than he bargained for in a house that everyone whispers about. The short story THE DUNGEON follows a girl with a fear of the dark who is locked inside the basement of a hospital overnight. She hears ominous noises coming from the morgue. Beth, the protagonist in THAT SINKING FEELING, is plagued by the guilt of not calling the police after hearing screams outside her window one night. When her neighbor Mary Jane turns up dead the next morning, Beth is drawn to the scene of the crime. Unfortunately, someone else is drawn to that spot, as well. I HEART YOU is a short tale about finding love after death. In THE LONG WALK HOME, Olive Hawthorne is haunted by her dead twin sister, Laurel, who needs her help to catch her murderer. THE JUMPWATCH follows Charlotte as she is sent to a different time by her loving husband to save the world from certain doom. Beth Tanaka returns in THAT DESTINY THING, led by rumors back to the town of Birch Hollow where she finds a coyote stuck in a trap in the woods. And finally, the Starship Moirai is stuck in a time loop in GRAVITY, and Nami Chraetrac is the only one who is aware it's even happening.
