This was not what I was expecting. The ending was a bit much for me, and it felt more psychological thriller than real horror - I couldn't really see this as fitting the idea of something in the shadows - but it was an interesting short read. It definitely would have seemed weaker if it was any longer, and it lacked a bit of explanation about the early sessions of the remedy. The final reveal didn't really explain enough for me. But the writing was well done and easy to listen to.
