Author Stephen Earley Jordan II introduces Hiram, a lonely Puerto Rican separated from his family for reasons unknown. Written as a tribute to Virginia’s Woolf’s “To the Lighthouse”, this story begins with stream of consciousness to show Hiram welcoming The Guest into his home. After showing immediate hospitality, unusual occurrences begin and The Guest informs Hiram of his birthright and unexpected fate. This is a short tale of commitment and faith; betrayal and perversion; and teaches that, at times, faith alone is not enough to keep one alive when you have no idea of who you truly are. This is the last short story in The Macabre Collector's Series.
