Summary
Did you ever hear the one about the man with a string of bad luck? The worst is still to come in a chilling short story of an insatiable friendship by the New York Times bestselling author of Hell of a Book.
For best friends with vastly different fortunes, what’s left to hash out other than a forced confession at gunpoint? All that the destitute, sickly, and grieving Will demands is that monstrously successful Barry admit to draining all the luck right out of him. Like blood. As the standoff escalates, the truth is not the only thing ready to come out.
Jason Mott’s ‘Best of Luck’ is part of Creature Feature, a collection of devilishly creepy stories that tingle the spine and twist the mind. They can be read or listened to in one petrifying sitting.
Review
Wow, what an intense ride! I was blown away by how many twists and turns Jason Mott packed into this short story. At just 29 pages, it’s a quick read, but don’t let its size fool you—it’s not for the faint of heart. Fans of The Thing or Stephen King’s style of storytelling will love the creeping tension and shocking moments. Be warned: if you’re reading this in public, you might catch yourself gasping, pulling weird faces, or forgetting to breathe. A perfect little thrill for when you need something quick, dark, and unforgettable!
