Night Night, Sleep Tight

Arthur Unger is out for his nightly swim. He’s looking forward to his daughter, Deidre, arriving the next day for help in selling the family house- even though he and Deidre do not have an easy-going relationship.

He feels a tinge of guilt about some things of the past- and wonders if there is time to make up for the ways he failed his children. Mostly, he’s concerned with the next chapter in his life, though. He’s swimming and imagining how the story will play out.

But Arthur could never have expected what happened next…… Continue reading →
