AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'A contemporary horror anthology where death shows its many faces: subtle, sublime and pointlessly cruel. In a place you could walk past any day of the week, with people who could live next door, this is where death can reach you in any season and become, in truth, the worst dream of all. IM chats, prize winning roses, lonely hotel guests, doing one's duty, going home on the Underground and a drink at the pub. Seventeen original tales, in everyday settings, to unnerve you and shake you out of your daily routine. You have been warned!' Source: publisher's website.
