My Soul to Keep
“A too-loud commercial for a car dealership had been playing, and Jessica was about to reach over to adjust the volume when, as if reading her mind, the radio clipped the booming announcer’s voice in midsentence. Silence.
For the longest time, she really thought it was only the radio. She fiddled with the knob, clicking it on and off, but it didn’t make a sound. The radio’s panel was no longer lighted, either. Weird. They’d never had a problem with the radio before.
Returning her eyes to the roa...d, the next thing Jessica noticed was that the roadway was pitch-black except for the cones of light from a station wagon passing her in the fast lane. She sat up straight, straining to peer through the windshield past the dots of water from the last brief rain shower. Well, shit. How were people supposed to see the damn roads out here without streetlamps? Had it always been this dark?
Jessica lifted her foot from the accelerator slightly, slowing down, and she glanced at the speedometer.MoreLess
