Two Good Turns

There is something weighing on Mark's mind - and the rest of him too. Christie wants to give her husband a relaxing weekend. She has no idea it might be their last.
On the Strand family crest, there are written ten little words - sixty-five letters that just might spell the end for Mark and Christy:

Unum bonum torquent
Eligite nocumentum

Duos torquet
Et eligere substitutum

It's a shame they can't read Latin.

"Two Good Turns" is a horror story and a relationship story. It is a tale in the vein of Daphne Du Maurier's horror, inspired by the short fiction of M.R. James and John O'Hara.
