The Collection, Part 1

Our second novella in the "Trio of Nightmares" is The Collection, by Maine-based writer Katherine Silva.

In the wake of his estranged father's death, newspaper editor, Peter Dawson, discovers the old man, a renowned professor, owned an estate somewhere in the dense woodlands of Norfolk County. Trying to overcome nightmares of his time in the Great War and memories of a bittersweet childhood, Peter finds himself drawn to the estate, hoping to understand his father's final days and the research that caused him to lose his sanity.
