Chapter 225

People used to say that Colin was a nutjob, obsessed with hoarding animal corpses and then displaying them in glass domes.

I didn’t believe it, but the sight before me was nothing short of shocking. Row upon row of glass domes lined the shelves, each one housing the “corpse” of a butterfly – specimens, they called them

Some were blue, others black, and a few were a kaleidoscope of colors. But it was the dome at the bottom that caught my eye – a cat, looking ever so peaceful, was curled up inside.
