Saturday: “McHenry’s Gift” by Mike MacLean * * * *
Sunday: “N.” by Stephen King * * * * *

My favorite story of the week was: “N.” by Stephen King

From the review: “The story does include the “Pandora effect” that many horror stories suffer from – that curiosity that always leads to disaster. Here it fits the story – the curiosity created for the characters is overwhelming – and the results, while tragic, make the story enjoyable, and a little scary.
