EXCERPT:

“Well, it could be up that road,” she said, pointing to this one-way street. I remember one of the houses had this two-piece door at the front, kind of a stable door. I was sure we’d been up it before, and there’d just been a wall at the end. I asked her what she meant by ‘could be.’ Was it there or wasn’t it? She said, “It’ll be there if it’s there. It comes and goes, you see. Now you see it, now you don’t!”

— Oldstone Gardens by Tom Johnstone
