The Rose Sprite: A Short Story

Maggie, wife and new mother, feels safe in her home and the surrounding fields and forests. She never lent credence to her mother’s tales of the fairy folk, passed down through the generations back in the Old Country, for that was far away and long ago. But all that changes on one fateful day in her rose garden, when one careless mistake pits Maggie and her husband John against an unseen foe bent on vengeance. If she wants to save her child, Maggie must take drastic measures to make things right.
