There are many ways to find meaning in retirement. Some of them are just a little more ... impactful ... than others.

Mack thinks his wife Clare is adjusting to retirement just fine, after a few hiccoughs.

That is, until he finds the trunk in the attic. And then it very quickly becomes clear that her adjustment has taken a slightly unusual turn ...

A rather dark and twisted little tale about finding a new purpose after work ends.

CONTENT WARNING: Lovely people, this short story is a little dark and nasty, and I just want to warn you that it contains mention of suicide. It is not the core of the story, and it takes the form of one character's concern for another, but if you'd like to avoid that please skip this one. ❤️
