I enjoyed the ride and the characters. But if Natalie never meets Hector, how does the outcome change?

I have no idea what story I just fell into, I picked it because I needed something different, and I got it ten-thousand-fold. It’s a cross between a suspense thriller, gothic horror, and science fiction story. Our players are Hector, an ex-military contractor gone the way of the bottle and a young girl, Natalie, escaping from somewhere that has kept her captive. Even though I was completely and absolutely alarmed by the number of INSECTS that the author wrote into the story, I had to stick with it to see what would happen. I am writing this down because I want to give fair warning about THE INSECTS!! If I had known, I would not have gone in. And now I can’t unhear the story. Great writing, fast story, ends on an okay note.

A great action packed story with well written characters. What was starting to seem like over-the-top gross out made sense at the end.
