In Jude Craig’s dream-filled mind, it
started with less than a whisper. A sound so imperceptible that at first, she
didn’t even register it. Like an innocent baby blissfully sleeping, she was
unaware that a murderous monster had entered the room. Her room. Her
bedroom.
Somewhere in the distance, a rogue firework
burst into the night sky, refusing to accept that Bonfire Night had passed for
another year. Two local dogs tried to rouse the neighbourhood, informing them
of the intruder in the night. Apart from the gentle rustling breeze, nobody
stirred. Their warning was unheeded, and the world slept on.
It had begun.”
