Trigger Warning

by Ruth Anna Evans

This story starts in the aftermath of a mass shooting at a preschool, and doesn't get any easier from there. A ghost story that's just too real, this novelette-length tale is true horror--it's what really keeps us up at night.

All proceeds from the sale of Trigger Warning are donated to Everytown for Gun Safety.

Abby can't keep herself away from her son's preschool, where she feels he is still waiting for her to pick him up and take him home. This can't be true, because a deranged mass shooter took his life, along with his friends' and his teacher's, in a bloody attack with an AR-15. But when Abby visits the school to try to get some closure, she finds that Jared is there, along with all of the other children killed that day. And they want revenge.

While Trigger Warning is a no-holds-barred reproach of the systems that have failed to keep our children safe, it is first and foremost a ghost story; one that will haunt you long after you turn the last page.
