Synopsis/Details
Six weeks in a remote, rural, charming cottage in France with your family. Time to breathe, heal, and turn things around. With clear, uninterrupted time for it in beautiful surroundings.
And yet…
Beyond the straggling orchard at the garden’s edge stands something that really shouldn’t be there.
Certainly, it looms in stark contrast to the gentle, pastoral surroundings.
Its arched entrance is completely sealed. Fence posts hammered into the ground on either side, leaning slightly with age, support a sheet of buckled wire mesh.
And lashed tight to the mesh, a wooden sign.
Hand-lettered, in French: NE PAS ENTRER.
DO NOT ENTER.
It’s likely for the best. There could be poisonous plants, collapsing hedges, even trapped animals in there.
Best it stays sealed. Best it keeps the kids out.
Or is it meant to keep something in?
