Little Secrets

 Fiction by Jennifer Hiller


This story starts out with a child abduction. A woman called Marin is Christmas shopping in a busy market with her son Sebastian when he disappears. I had to skim that part, because the whole idea terrifies me. But the main part of the story is about Marin's life a year later, after she has outwardly "moved on" from the tragedy.

Of course, Marin couldn't really move on from losing Sebastian. Although the police gave up a long time ago, she still has a private investigator on the case. Still, what new things could possibly be uncovered after so long? Oh, there's something!

This was an interesting story with a surprise ending that just skated towards unbelievable. I liked but didn't love it.
