THE PLAYGROUND OF LOST CHILDREN by Erik Lynd is one of his best stories yet. The author mixes the supernatural with crime drama, creating a dark thriller about a detective facing her childhood fear. The flashback to the day her little brother disappeared is perfectly placed, and the playground appears to be a terrifying version of a fairy circle. The ending is bittersweet.
I usually prefer stand-alone stories, but I'd love some kind of sequel to reveal more of the history behind the secret place in the woods.
I also recommend IN THE PIT, which features another character experiencing flashbacks to a troubled childhood.
As always,
