Add to basketPaperback. From the imagination of Rob Parnell come nine stories of suspense, dread and horror to make your hair curl and your blood run cold. Compiled over a twelve year period, many of these stories have appeared in magazines, anthologies and in online ezines. Collected here for the first time, immerse yourself in to a world that is familiar - but deadly. Dead Time - The violent murder of a beautiful teenager was committed fifteen years ago. The only witness is now a ghost that resides within the walls of a recording studio. A young psychic is on the trail of the killer - until she too is brutally slain. Ex-rock star Patrick Whynowski and Detective Inspector Theresa Maddox form an unlikely alliance to solve the crimes before the killer strikes again. Download - When Ken takes off time from his family and job to finish his cherished novel, he doesn't expect his computer to have other ideas. Locked in a crummy caravan with only his thoughts and his writing skills, Ken must use all his wits - and then some - to fight the software download that might just end up being the death of him. Unpaid Loan - All she wants is her money back but Shirley is a spoiled young rich kid who doesn't know about life on the other side of town. Loosely based on a true event, this story explores the depths of human depravity. The Naga - Jimmy takes a trip to Cambodia looking for peace and maybe something more spiritual amongst the ancient ruins of Angkor Watt. But there's a serial killer on the loose - or perhaps it's the dragon god of the Khmer people, wreaking revenge on the war-torn inhabitants. The Stryga - Something vicious is terrorizing Patrick and his band. The stryga mates with guys and then, after, rips them to shreds. Is this creature from beyond the ultimate cure for infidelity? Patrick and Detective Inspector Maddox are determined to find out. Strange Brew - When a couple go for a hike in the woods, they get lost and end up in the house of a witch. Sounds familiar? Yep, it's Hansel and Gretel brought into the modern age, with more terrifying - and more graphic - consequences. Lair of the Puca - In Ireland there's a legend of a shape-shifter called the Puca. It can take any form it chooses. Now, it's chosen to become a savage killing machine bent on destroying Patrick's family. This is the third installment of The Bad Blood Chronicles. Common Ground - In the future there will be nowhere left to roam. All the land has been taken by a civilization struggling to exist in hi-tech pods. But amidst the people, there's love for Shenmi and Jonto, despite the interference of Dnez, the gorgeous star of Shenmi's new play. On Regus, people bond for seven cycles and have a pet that monitors - and feeds off - their affection. The Closet - Imagine you have a cupboard in your house where everything you put disappears. What would you do? How much of your life would you want to get rid of? And how many people could you safely dispose of? Nine Tales of Terror will thrill you and keep you awake at night - until the very last page. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
