THE LURE OF THE BOX

Matthew Gideon looked at the closet where he kept the Box. He told himself that he wasn’t going to listen to it anymore. He wasn’t even going to take it out of the closet. So far it had only caused him trouble, more trouble than he knew what to do with.

But –

It had been right too. And it had been wrong. And it lied when it wanted to. The trick was to know when it was lying.

And no one knew.

It told him it would help him find the cure to the plague.

He opened the closet doors.
