Zippo by Susan Snyder
Kristen plays with an old Zippo lighter. It’s a tic, a bad habit, something she can’t really stop herself from doing when she’s anxious.
And she is anxious; her former family, the homeless of the city, are being rounded up. Rumors of diabolic cults ran rampant, and everyone is hungry and scared. She can only hope her new family, with its connections to city politics, can set things right in time.
From the two-time Splatterpunk Award-nominated author of Param and the Encyclopedia Sharksploitanica comes a new short story.
