Butterflies (The Secret Casebook of Simon Feximal)

By KJ Charles

Journalist Robert Caldwell is still smarting from his first encounter with ghost-hunter Simon Feximal. Their night in a haunted house was thrilling, but the aftermath leaves Robert hurt, disappointed, and resolved not to see Simon again.

But just a few days later their paths cross once more, this time investigating a pair of mysterious deaths: two corpses shrouded in butterflies.

Now Robert wants the truth – on the deaths, on where the butterflies came from, and most of all, on the attraction that still burns between him and Simon.

A standalone short story in the Secret Casebook of Simon Feximal. The first Simon Feximal story, ‘The Caldwell Ghost’, is available from Torquere Press.

Terrific short story. Great lead characters, and, yes, creepy butterflies.
