In The Third Rail, three strangers board a New York subway car on an ordinary morning - each hiding something that could break them. What happens in the next few stops will change all three in ways none of them planned. In The Perils of Youth, three high school seniors sit in a study hall, each trapped by a different kind of damage. What they offer each other isn't rescue. It's something rarer: the simple act of being seen.
Two stories by Edward C. Distel - lean, unsparing, and quietly unforgettable.
