The Silence of the Fans
Something in sector D9 wants to listen.
Max loves the night shift at Heaton DataMill. Fans spinning where looms once did, water cooling where it once powered the factory. And Kirsty: his supervisor, who has never once smiled at him, and whose glares he secretly rates out of ten.
But in sector D9, the lights misbehave, cables braid themselves overnight, and the fans keep falling silent — as if something wants to listen.
Can Max find his way to the heart of Kirsty’s endless fury? Will she ever actually smile? And will they survive what the strange girl in a white dress and clogs has planned for them?*

Warning: not all characters in this story have a happy ending. At least one is abrupt and grisly — but to maintain the suspense, I won’t tell you whose. Or how many.
