A varied collection of flash fiction and short stories, mostly funny, some sad, and others more dramatic and poignant. From the humour of several twist in the tale type stories to those of the harsh realities of the world we live in, a collection to both entertain and keep the reader guessing. Among such stories: a drastic way of dealing with those annoying cold callers that plague our peace and quiet, poetic justice for those who would profit from the suffering of others, the touching story of how a father helps his young son come to terms with the death of his mother, and a husband's unique way of saying goodbye. There are also an additional ten stories from five very talented guest authors, including a hilarious account of an April fool's joke, a couple of very funny stories and some hard hitting stories of comeuppance, and an intriguing story of a businessman's unexpected but very welcome encounter with a beautiful young woman. These and many more...*With guest contributions from the following authors: Tom Benson - Lesley Hayes - Peter Nena - John M.W. Smith - Matthew Williams.
