    About this ebook

    Cath doesn't know Ben's real name. She doesn't know what he's done. She certainly doesn't know about his precise control over every one of the providential coincidences that make their relationship so special. Ben's psychiatrist does know, and as it happens, Ben's psychiatrist is Cath's Psychiatrist too. Ben has decided - the man has hypnotized his last patient.

    "Snap" is a horror story with crime and psychological elements. It runs the gamut from bizarre romance to murder procedural to Edgar Allen Poe.

      The Story

      More Stories and Contact Information

      To understand my story you have to understand that I’m a people watcher. I don’t mean people watching as a once in a while thing. There isn’t any sitting on benches in the mall laughing at haircuts, jewelry, and nascar jumpsuits, not for me. I watch all the time. It’s a part of my routine. When I go to the grocery store, I buy groceries and I hear and see next to me, as one example, a woman and her daughter. Does the daughter check off the shopping list? How far apart do they stray? What does the mother do when her little girl asks a question she isn’t old enough to have answered?

      To understand, you have to understand that I know people. A lifetime of watching’ll do that. The little things people say and do are my native language; I started watching long before speaking my first words. That’s how I knew what it was that I told my fat little psychiatrist, and what he knew, and that’s why I had to kill him. I understand your insides. Cath and I are proof of that.

      What do you call me? Call me Ben. It’s the name Cath called me.

      At first I saw her the same way I see everyone, as a part of my daily routine. Before long that routine moved to put me next to Cath more often. I watched, and what I saw was just beautiful. Cath was so open and alive. A lot of the time, I see into people through what they hide. A person hesitates or they turn their head away and I know what they’re afraid of, or what they’re ashamed of. I had my eye on Cath for months. She never hid a thing. Understand, I didn’t pester her. Not one single time did I even
