THE GANGSTER'S NEW CLOTHES
A Tale of Dark Fantasy from
On the Verge of Madness
by George Wilhite
This audio presentation is a slightly edited version of this story, read by J.B. Goodspeed, originally presented on the Well Told Tales podcast.
Lars, a hitman waiting for his mark to arrive, bored stiff, held up in a one-horse town, decides to indulge himself in a new suit.
A convenience store owner suggests a tailor, which Lars finds kind of odd, but he makes the fateful decision to visit Hymie, the purveyor of "a perfect fit."
This Twilight Zone inspired tale from my self-published debut collection On the Verge of Madness finds Lars wandering the city streets in his new suit, soon doubting his sanity as the world shifts around him in space and time.
