Tiny Tears – it’s not just about a doll.

Barbara is on life support. Her sister is talking to her even though presumably she can’t hear her.
‘I’ve always been trim,’ she says, not like you, Barbara, and our sister Sheila was always too thin.

She tells her about finding Tiny Tears. Alice was the youngest – too young to appreciate a doll that cries and wees when you put water in it.

What starts as ‘gossiping’ turns more sinister when the truth comes out. Excellent.
