Author: Graff, Maxine

Condition: New

Jesse could hardly see them now. It was miles away to any lighted buildings. The natural light from the stars and moon was restricted by the partly cloudy conditions. That made it barely possible for Jesse to identify the outline of his body as he partially lifted the lady's torso and rested it on the short wooden railing which ran along both sides of the bridge. He looked like a giant in the night to Jesse. She was aghast at the outline of his enormous structure looming in the darkness on the bridge next to the lady's body sprawled over the wooden rail. Then, with a very deliberate motion, he pushed the body over the wooden rail. The lady's body fell quickly through the air in the darkness toward the water and sharp rocks below. Although it must have been only a few moments, it seemed to Jesse a very long time before she heard a splashing thud the body made when it landed into the creek.
