Sleep of the Just by Marcus Wight - A wandering knight takes on a job and gets more than he bargained for.

The Most Dangerous (Board) Game by Carolyn Stein and Stephen Stein - A board game demo at a convention is more than it seems.
‘Seating himself, Nick gulped down several cheese-covered nachos, licked his fingers, and reached across the board. He hesitated for a moment, considering his move, and then picked up one of his wolves, only to suddenly drop it. “Hey! It bit me.”’

Marget and the Mimic by Rhiannon Lotze - A retired resident of begins to wonder if the disappearences in her neighbourhood have something to do with that package left across the street.
‘Margaret turned in for the night, but one thought stuck in her mind, making it hard to fall asleep; the Amazon package on the porch across the way was definitely bigger.’
Crittenton by Victory Witherkeigh - Hired to look into an obfuscated part of America's past, a private detecive discovers something even more horrifying.
‘Why he hadn't checked for an escape route was beyond stupid, in his opinion, but Detective Vadon Moss didn't have time to dwell on it now. Something was coming for him, and it was angry, hungry for vengeance.’
Down into the Depths by Roland Bridge - Venturing into the depths of the world on a quest, an adventuring party wonders if every member can pull their weight.
‘I’m the guy that gets things done. I bring skill and finesse to the group. Skill is my spear and Finesse is my hammer. If there is a door that is heavily locked? Finesse. Someone won’t tell us where the treasure room is? Finesse.'
