Deadly Secret

Two friends. An ocean of scotch. Something unnatural is revealed in the middle of the night. After all, that's what friends are for.

Frederic's Little Secret by Phil Rossi is one of the creepiest short stories I've ever read. A perfectly horrific reason not to get completely plastered with friends late at night and share personal secrets. The only real way to keep a secret between two people is if one is dead.

Even when Frederic reveals his major relationship issue to his friend, Eric, I had no idea where Rossi would take this story. Eric's drunk paranoia cranked the suspense to a terrifying level. I felt his fear.

Never read Rossi before, but I'm definitely going to read more of his work.

As always.
