  A man stood in front of him, smiling.

  He waved his hand in front of Martin’s eyes.

  Martin grunted again, trying desperately to talk.

  “You must be the dumbest person I’ve ever dealt with. What were you trying to do, kill yourself?” The man asked but his words were almost unrecognizable. “You didn’t kill yourself. You only managed to break your neck. The reason you can’t move is because you’re paralyzed from the neck down. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.” The man wasn’t a doctor, it was his favorite orderly. “Don’t worry. No one has taken you favorite place yet. As soon as I get back I’ll take you there.” He said and walked away laughing without a shame.

  At the door he paused and turned to Martin. “Don’t go anywhere now.” He pointed his finger at Martin still smiling.

  About the Author

  Aletta Maria Smith was born in South Africa in 1974. Living on a farm, she didn’t grow up with the privileges as most children in school. As a child she relocated every year, meaning each year it was a new school and new friends. She was mostly alone and detached from children her age. At age twelve she started writing short stories and built up to full length novels by the age of twenty six.

  Although, she never got far with her writing she wasn’t fazed. Each time it failed, she tried again. As her Grandfather always told her, “you can fail a million times, but only succeed once”. She started writing seriously at the age of twenty nine, completing three manuscripts; Earth’s Final Day, Bitter Freedom, and Hazy View: Souls of the Vanished.

  The first two manuscripts paved the way for Hazy View. Currently, she is working on the sequel to this book titled Hazy View: Woods of Horror. A new manuscript Rising Fury is still in skeleton form, but something to look out for in the future.
