In the Dead of Night

By Trent Jueckstock

IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT is a compendium of three bone chilling Flash Fiction pieces that’ll show you how humans can be much scarier than any monster.

“Knife Lake” brings Jack’s worst nightmares to life as he finds himself bound within an unfamiliar car with a knife held to his throat. The masked driver makes it clear that he plans to kill Jack and dump his body in the highly isolated Knife Lake. Jack can only hope that he can save himself before his body is consumed by the icy waters.

“What Lies Beneath” follows private investigator Travis Walker on his biggest case yet, saving a young girl from a supposed serial killer. But, when the investigation leads him to a cabin dozens of miles into the forests of southern Oregon, Travis will soon come to learn that there is more to this case than he could have possibly expected.

“The Whispers of Guilt” centers around Kevin Hernandez, a father grieving over the recent deaths of his wife and son. Desperate for relief, Kevin turns to a new antidepressant with the side effect of causing nightmarish hallucinations. Kevin will come to find himself questioning if the cure is actually worse than the disease.
