SNEAK PEEK into print issue: 

High Anxiety 

by John M. Floyd 

Joe McClellan led a simple life. He had a wife, two kids, a mortgage, a respectable job, and very few complications. No excitement, no mystery, no oddities. At least until now.

Joe wondered, on his drive home from the airport, what could have happened in their quiet little neighborhood. His wife had left him a disturbing voicemail message before her commute to work this morning: last night in the wee hours she'd seen two police cars and an ambulance in the street in front of the Hickams's house, next door.

The only thing in front of it now was Bill Hickam, raking the leaves in his yard. Joe parked the car, plopped his luggage down on his driveway, and strolled over.

"Everything okay, Bill? Peggy said you had some excitement last night."

Bill Hickam stopped raking. He was a big man, blond and red-faced. Thanks to a recent downsizing he was unemployed, but his wife Mary––some kind of computer guru, Joe had heard––apparently kept their heads above water. "The police cars, you mean?"

"And she mentioned an ambulance," Joe said.

"Long story." Bill pointed his rake at the ground. "It's these dern leaves, caused it all."

Joe blinked. "The leaves?"
