Fraidy Hole: a Sheriff Lester P. Morrison Novel
“The snake, wherever it was, had not reappeared and she hoped the tiny flame was enough of a deterrent to keep the thing from slithering up the stairs after her. She sat on the top step, as high as she could go, her hair brushing against the steel door. At the moment, her entire focus was on two things, the snake of course, and the rate at which the candle, her only source of light (and sanity) was melting away. So far, the rate of burn was imperceptive, but how long had it been since she had us...ed one of her five matches—now down to four—to light the candle and help to calm her racing heart? Two hours, three? Would it last until morning when the sun peeked through the crack and the precious golden light shed its meager, but oh so important, illumination on her cave of horrors? That’s what it was now, a horror show. The Disney-like cast of cute little mice and her special friend Lulu were gone, disappeared into the night, or…eaten. Now there was a villainous long black (at least it looked black) slimy, tongue-flicking serpent full of poison, ready to sink its sharp fangs into her at the first chance it got.MoreLess
