Trigger Warning

WHAT GOES AROUND by Tammy Ruggles is a flash fiction family drama about a toddler molested by a neighbor. The parents try to follow the rules and do everything by the book, but the community supports the pedophile and the justice system fails the little girl.

Ruggles captures the frustration and devastation of the parents in a realistic manner, without being graphic in any way or exploiting the youngest character for shock value.

In the end, Karma vs. Free Will.

As always,
