Publisher's Summary

With her husband barely clinging to life at home, Becka has taken to jogging. Running helps clear her head and her heart. But it's not until she discovers a free-standing confessional booth deep in the woods that she begins to clear her conscience.

As the days pass, and as her husband's condition worsens, Becka returns to the booth, finding it hard to stay away.

But what draws her there? Is it the clean feeling of confession? Or is it what might be listening on the other side of the grate?

Decorum at the Deathbed is the newest tale of psychological terror from Josh Malerman, New York Times best selling author of Bird Box and Malorie.

Very good

From a different point of view, how clever of the author.

I found it is a very good short story It could’ve gone on longer. I’d look forward to hearing more. Very clever. Very interesting.
