Vigilant (a Little Brother story)

N/A • 29 september 2024

Will Staehle's cover for 'Vigilant': a stylized, shattered mobile phone on a mustard-colored background.

This week on my podcast, I read “Vigilant“, a new Little Brother story commissioned by Nelda Buckman and published on Reactor, the online publication of Tor Books. Also available in DRM-free ebook form as a Tor Original.

Kids hate email.


Dee got my number from his older brother, who got it from Tina, my sister-in-law, who he knew from art school. He texted me just as I was starting to make progress with a gnarly bug in some logging software I was trying to get running for my cloud servers.


My phone went bloop and vibrated a little on the kitchen table, making ripples in my coffee. My mind went instantly blank. I unlocked my phone.


> Is this marcus


I almost blocked the number, but dammit, this was supposed to be a private number. I’d just changed it. I wanted to know how it was getting out and whether I needed to change it again.


> Who’s this?


Yeah, I punctuate my texts. I’m old.


> I need help with some school stuff some spying stuff at school i heard your good at that
