Where the Shadows Lie

When the Past Is Forgotten, the Shadows Remain

It was a cold, bitter morning on February 3rd, 1965, in Dayton, Ohio. The sun had barely risen when Mrs. Alice Franklin, a neighbour, noticed something unusual. The front door to Diane Jacobs' modest brick home was slightly ajara strange sight for someone known for her cautious habits. Diane, a 27-year-old elementary school teacher, was the kind of woman who always locked her doors. Mrs. Franklin hesitated momentarily, thinking that Diane had just stepped out momentarily, but the bitter wind convinced her otherwise. When no movement followed, Mrs. Franklin's concern grew.

She knocked softly at first, then more insistently, but there was no response. Her hand trembled as she pushed the door open further, calling out Diane's name. The house was still, eerily quiet, except for the wind rattling the windows. A few steps in, and Mrs. Franklin's eyes were drawn to the living roomeverything was in its place,

meticulously neat, just as Diane liked it. But as she moved toward the bedroom, a sense of dread crept over her. She swallowed hard, her heart pounding, as she reached the threshold.

There, on the bed, Diane Jacobs lay still. Her body was positioned unnaturallyher back flat against the mattress, her arms outstretched, and her legs slightly bent. A black nylon stocking was tightly wound around her neck, cutting into her pale skin. Mrs. Franklin gasped and stumbled back. Diane's once vibrant face was now cold and lifeless, her lips tinged blue, her eyes wide open, staring at the ceiling. The stocking was tied in an intricate knot, a deliberate and personal signature of the horror that had transpired.

Bill Stewart spent an incredible 42 years at sea, navigating the world's oceans and gathering stories from the many adventures that a life at sea provides. After retiring, Bill turned to writing as a way to supplement his pension income, discovering a new passion for storytelling along the way.

Bill began writing children's storybooks, and to date, he has twelve published titles available on Kindle. His gift for storytelling soon expanded into the teen thriller genre, where he has published three gripping thrillers that have captivated young adult readers.

Never one to rest, Bill is constantly at work, with several new projects in the drafting stage. Most recently, he completed and published his latest works, a Christmas 2024 children's book, which he hopes will bring joy and wonder to readers during the holiday season and Whispers from the river a short fact-based work of fiction about the infamous murderer known as the Green River Killer, who, by his own admission has murdered 80+ marginalised women.
