A shot is fired. Passengers on the Underground get too close for comfort. A stoic grandmother reaches out to her estranged granddaughter through her first computer. A familiar drive home takes an unfamiliar turn – literally. A Hollywood effects artist discovers that even heroes have a dark side. Twenty seven tales of horror and mystery unearth dark secrets and terrible truths. From serial killers to short-order cooks, disillusioned office workers to child prodigies, the members of this braying human menagerie are on a collision course with the end times – and one another. Olivia White’s debut short story collection weaves a series of narratives into a creepy, tangled, darkly comic whole. This new Therapy Edition includes four never-before-published stories, and for the first time in print, fan-favourite The Haunting of Winchester Lane.
