Sump Pump by A.E. Hodge
Things couldn’t get much worse for Gary Crawford. Once a big-shot lawyer at a major firm, Gary left his job and moved to the country after a heart attack, hoping to find a new life free of stress. Big mistake. The new house is in shambles. Spiderwebs cover everything, and the spiders are so numerous he finds them in his cereal and in his bed at night.
And now, the latest problem. The sump pump keeps turning on and off, keeping Gary up all night, and no matter what he tries, he can’t seem to fix it. The sound of the sump pump is driving him mad, pushing him closer and closer to the brink of another meltdown. His wife tells him he’s stressing over nothing. Even his plumber finds nothing wrong with the pump itself.
Because the problem isn’t the sump pump. Something in the sump pit is operating the switch at night. And when Gary comes face to face with the culprit, another heart attack will be the least of his worries…
