Description
December 2008, outside a town called Havenwood that no longer appears on any map. Luna's cousin rented a single-wide trailer at the dead end of Cypress Road, and for two weeks the Christmas lights on the porch never went out—not when the breaker tripped, not when the power company cut the line, not when he tried to pull the plug himself. This is the account of what he saw through the window after midnight, and what eventually came knocking. A slow, cold story about a promise kept long past the point it should have been broken, and about the light that stayed on after everything else went dark.
