Desperate. What if you attempted suicide but were not sure if you had succeeded? What would you do if you were told you only had a week to live? When did you realize there is an alternative to the truth? Is it okay to murder a murderer? What befalls a woman who values outer beauty more than internal beauty? Was it Evolution, Creationism, or did something more simple ignite the Universe? How does a man know exactly when Death will come for him? What really happens when we throw a coin in a fountain and make a wish? How would you exploit your ghostly abilities if you suddenly died? Would you break the law to save a sick child? When the Mirror Breaks shows what happens to thirteen people who suffer bad choices, bad circumstances, or just plain bad luck. Sometimes bad things happen to good people. Sometimes good fortune finds bad people. And, sometimes there is just no easy way to describe the pain and suffering that certain people must endure - whether an innocent bystander or guilty of something unrelated to the moment. Seems to some, this is just a random world. No matter how hard we try to do the right thing, it is just a matter of time before the wrong things track us down and remind us that this world belongs to forces far beyond our comprehension. Decker Schutt writes about bad things that happen to good people. While some look at the world through rose-colored glasses, he prefers to step on them. After 25 years teaching writing, he now focuses on his own writing. So far, so good. Unless you're one of the unlucky 13. Nationally-syndicated radio host Michael Smerconish called him a "genius." Others have called him "inspiring." Still others have expressed their gratitude for not living too close, especially on cold, winter nights when the wind finds a weak window shutter and starts slamming it against the side of the house. That's when you might worry just who lives nearby.
