In the Dark

In the Dark by Edith Nesbit. Nice, moody, scary story. The two best friends are upset about the third friend, who bothered them from elementary school to adulthood. He seems to know things he does not intuitively know, and he always tells the truth. One friend fled to India and the other stayed in the UK. When the refugee returns, he finds that his friend was torn apart and half mad. Why, is the story.
