The Shepherd

It is Christmas Eve, 1957. Flying home, on leave from Germany, he is alone in the cockpit of the Vampire. Sixty-six minutes of flying time, with the descent and landing - destination Lakenheath. No problem, all routine procedures.Then, out over the North Sea, the fog begins to close in. Radio contact ceases and the compass goes haywire. Suddenly, out of the mist, appears a WorldWar II bomber. It is flying just below the Vampire, as if trying to make contact.

A great short story well narrated

I always loved the book, great story, and loved the audible version. The story is unfortunately short and has no known sequel sadly. Well narrated.

Quick and sweet

Charming little tale. Nice holiday short story! Good narration. Went by quickly and made me feel cozy by my fire.

Very Good!!

Ohhhh…goose bump city! Very good story with a lot of suspense leaving you with prickly goosebumps in the end…🪿👊🏻! 🤣

The story is great and developed slowly but interestingly

I disliked the fact that it was too short Mr. Fredrick is a great author

Fine short story

This is a fine short story for the whole family to listen to. Great for a ride to Grandpa’s house on Christmas Eve.
