In this story from the Guest Quarters series on the Edge of Propinquity, a man somehow finds himself transformed into the grim reaper--and this not by his own will. Nor does he get to decide who dies. He's just someone's minion, out to harvest bodies for the dead. The situation of this story is really quite unique. I could see this as a movie somewhere, some kind of M. Night Shyamalan piece. Read the story here at Edge of Propinquity.

On "Dead Man's Curve" by Seanan McGuire (6986 words) ***
Edge of Propinquity publishes linked stories of the uncanny nature. I was skeptical but the magazine--such fiction is not my usual domain--but the Edge does a good job of presenting well-rendered tales. In this piece for the Sparrow Hill Road series, a woman helps out a set of ghost hunters, who, it turns out, are in over their heads. Don't mess with the supernatural--a cardinal rule around these parts. The plot hums along at a good pace. Read the story here at the Edge of Propinquity.
