There are a few things you can count on when reading any of Jason McIntyre’s works: deep characterizations, great dialog, and vivid imagery. ‘Dark That Day…’ does not disappoint. While not my favorite McIntyre story (see Road Markers) still well worth the read. 4.5 stars rounded up.

Two old men meet on a park bench. As one of them begins to reveal his past, he realises that he has far more in common with the other man than he had first imagined. This short story contains realistic dialogue, an intriguing storyline and a gruesome, twisted theme, which I have come to expect from the darkly entertaining Mr. McIntyre. Karma, secrets, revenge, pride (& other deadly sins), are all examined in this mini-saga. A quick read that will keep you guessing.

This short story is surprisingly full of depth, both with plot and characters. Right from the first sentence, Jason McIntyre captured my attention. The dialogue perfectly fit the characters. I felt like I knew these men, sitting there on that bench having a casual chat. The twist at the end caught me completely by surprise, giving a little taste of McIntyre's signature darkness. Loved it!
