Excerpt:

She could smell the stench of stale beer enveloping the small, dark bedroom. Slivers of moonlight and starlight flitted through the thin white curtains covering the square window, casting strange and frightening shadows on the walls. Sally lay on her bed squirming, lifting her lean body, then plopping down, unable to bear the heavy weight on her.
