“But the apple was first, and it never stops rotting, it just gets blacker.”

Really wanted to like this more than I did. Description and imagery was beautiful, and the atmosphere - including the building of dread - was effective. However I don’t feel like that suspense built towards anything and the narrative lacked a satisfying conclusion.
