Jennifer- The act of opening the saddlebag and pulling a serrated knife! Wow, what a powerful image for powerful writing. Riveting.

Creepy and good. Made me think for a moment about how my dad mentioned that ancestors on his side were a rough bunch from Oklahoma. Cowboys. One of the creepiest parts of the story was how the main character disconnected himself from his wife's death down to how the broom handle was pulled out of her head. He did not say "I did it". Rather, he said it was done. Very psychopathic.

I'm so glad you liked the story, and I appreciate your comments!

I agree, our narrator seems like a psychopath and someone should have been watching him.
