Through the Eyes of the Murdered
My name was Salmon, like the fish; first name, Susie. I was fourteen when I was murdered on December 6, 1973. With these haunting words, we enter a story told from the most unexpected perspective-that of a teenage victim watching her family from heaven. In suburban Pennsylvania, Susie follows her neighbor Mr. Harvey into an underground room he built in a cornfield, overriding her instinctive wariness out of politeness. What happens next is presented with unflinching honesty yet remarkable restraint. Three days later, a dog discovers her elbow-the first evidence in what becomes an unsolved murder case haunting her community for years. What makes this narrative approach so powerful is how it subverts expectations. We immediately know who the killer is but remain powerless to communicate this to those left behind. We become observers alongside Susie, watching her family's desperate search for answers and their struggle to continue living in the shadow of unimaginable loss. This tension creates a unique reading experience where we feel both the intimate connection of first-person storytelling and the helpless distance of watching events unfold beyond our control.
