Death by Drinking

THE CONFESSION OF CLAIRE HANSON by Michele Freeman is not what I would consider a horror story by any means, but it is a dark piece about a woman dealing with her husband's alcoholism. The descriptions are so vivid, I had some bad memories surface...which is why I found Freeman's writing style so captivating.

Even though the story is brief, the author does a fantastic job of expressing the strong connection between wife and husband. I think Claire's POV deserves to be extended into a novella. No doubt in my mind, Freeman could write an excellent family drama.

As always,
