As more townspeople answer the call, friends and family believed to have been lost to the storm begin searching for a way back home.This novelette features several new illustrations by Trevor Henderson.

Not bad for a short story but didn‘t really develop the characters enough to make me care what happened. A bunch of people in this small seaside town died during a hurricane and the survivors begin to be able to speak to them through a phone booth that hasn‘t worked in years. But are they speaking to those that are lost? Or is it something more sinister? Quick read but kind of forgettable. 🌟🌟🌟
