The Origins of Misgiving
(2009)
Comfortable in the gated community of Brandewoode, Michael couldn’t ask for a better life. He works at computer security an easy commute away, golfs with his coworkers on weekends. He’s head-over-heels in love with his wife, Brenda. Lately, though, his world has been assuming oddly sinister shapes. For weeks now a fog has blotted out the sky, bringing with it a thick, incessant drizzle. Brenda seems detached. Changes at the office arouse his suspicions. Neighbors, one-by-one, fall victim to a mysterious illness. A phantomlike menace stalking Brandewoode has taken to raiding Michael’s garbage. And where are all those snakes coming from?
