Invisible Traces · A Horror Story No. 27
The Silver Rain
Alex Moonn
Every small town keeps a secret. Hollowmere kept a thirst.
Eleanor Ashworth, Nell to anyone who knows her, is a climatologist. She studies rain. Fifteen years after reading a small item about Hollowmere in a forgotten newspaper in Manchester, she follows a cab driver's handwritten directions to a town that doesn't show up on any recent map. Something happens there with the rain. The town has names for it: the visitation, the Thirst, the Watcher.

"It's climatology, Mr. Reid. I study rain."
"Then you're in the right place."
