John Rydell was 4000 miles away when he got the phone call from his wife. 'John there's someone in the house.' By the time he was home, tragedy had struck. A tragedy that threatened to engulf him, bringing back long forgotten and repressed memories of his days at university. Now his old friends are dying, one by one. They are found gutted, disembowelled, ruined. There were twelve of them twenty years ago, in university, and there were twelve of them for a reason. A Ghost Story from the dark mind of D E McCluskey, author of CRACK, and A Love Story Sometimes the past can come back to haunt you...

I love horror, and I love Christmas. Some would say that the two are not mutually associated, I would tell you different. I started writing at Christmas, back in the days of yore. I was reading The Night Before Christmas, by Clement Clarke Moore to my daughter who was too excited to sleep. But, I used my secret weapon, my boring voice she was soon catching the right amount of zzzzz's... As I tiptoed out of the room, giving Santa the space he needed to do his bit, I thought to myself, you know what? I could write something like that... So I did... The good Behaviour Act was written, the first story in Interesting Tymes, my very first publication. I live in sunny Liverpool in the UK with my partner and daughters, I used to work in IT but don't anymore, and am the happier person for it. I love football, music and film... I also enjoy long walks, pretty flowers, and gratuitous violence and nudity... I can be found mostly on Facebook @demccluskey_author or on Twitter @dammagedpro @demccluskey1 my website is www.dammaged.com
