Thanks – we got it. We'll review and follow up if needed.
Why did the woman in the restaurant scream? Why is the man falsely charged guilty? The empty cafe fills; reason unravels. In the novella Solitude, the last of eight tales in this volume, Solomon Rose returns home after 22 years to confront a dilemma soluble only by murder.
