    Linda Hurley

    Linda Hurley has dined with politicians and ridden Harleys with outlaws. Her tendency to question everything has led her down some unusual paths in life but she insists her sanity remains intact. She now indulges her obsession with the words What If by writing science fiction, fantasy and the odd short thriller.

      Stalker - Linda Hurley

      Kate’s mind wasn’t on the job. It was on him. She moved the stapler back to its correct position beside the computer. He thought the internet’s anonymity provided sanctuary but anyone with a little knowledge could see past his use of proxies. She knew she was being stalked and she knew who was stalking her. What she didn’t know was why.

      She clicked through to his Facebook page and scrolled down his friends list. She wasn’t on it. She had blocked him a long time ago. Two more women had been added to his list in the last week. Why then, when he seemed to have no problem finding new friends did he continue his covert surveillance of her?

      She closed her website admin page. She wasn’t going to get anything even remotely productive done today. How dare he invade her life, insinuate himself into her personal space without a by-your-leave or an excuse me! She had tried to ignore him but when visions of psychos making lampshades out of human skin began to infiltrate her dreams she knew something had to be done. It was time to fight fire with fire.

      Her browser automatically deleted her browsing history when she closed it. It wouldn’t do to have a record of her activity sitting around, not with what she was planning to do. She turned to the neat stack of printouts on her desk. As she paged through them she marvelled again at how easy it was to find out all sorts of information about a person when you put your mind to it.

      Name, address, telephone number, date and place of birth she found them all. For a small fee she could have
