Omschrijving

TAYLOR DYE'S heart-pounding novelette, "The Thing and Mr. Chips", will leave you on the edge of your seat…

Bill Chewder has heartburn, and he hasn't even had Thanksgiving dinner yet. Instead, he's stuck at work, a security officer patrolling the Apex Group Freight Terminal, while seemingly everyone else in the country is at home, enjoying a bountiful holiday meal and an exciting football game. Bill will manage, though—a job's a job—and he knows quite a few unlucky souls without a job at all.

What Bill doesn't know is that his own position will soon be available.

The Apex Group terminal is strangely quiet without the constant sounds of revving truck engines and slamming trailer doors. The sights and shadows of an empty freight yard at night only makes things even more eerie. The overhead lights illuminating the expansive property—and the geese in the pond out back—are Bill's only company. Or so he thinks…

Follow along as Bill makes his final patrol around the terminal, not knowing that a fatal surprise awaits him at its end. It doesn't seem to surprise the geese that Bill doesn't have long left to live; in fact, they almost seem to be warning him. How they know something is about to go terribly wrong, though, is perhaps most terrifying of all…
