Darker days
Olde Heuvelt, Thomas, 1983-2025
Book
In Lock Haven, a quiet little town in Washington State, there is a very special street. Bird Street. The residents of Bird Street are all wealthy, healthy & happy. Their children are all well-mannered & high achievers. At least they are for 11 months of the year. In November, however, the 'Darker Days' begin. For November's the month when things take a turn for the worse. It is in November that a stranger comes to Bird Street to collect the debt owed by the residents. Because, you see, there is a price that must be paid for all the good fortune they enjoy for the other 11 months of year. That price is one human life. Every November. Without fail. To ease their guilt, the residents of Bird Street seek out individuals, usually the elderly or the terminally ill, who wish to die with dignity & are content to be helped on their way. Until one year, things don't go to plan & events take a terrifying turn.
