A collection of supernatural horror stories, each one an exquisite little nugget of revenge and dark desire wrapped up in the blackest humour. They imagery is gory and shocking but the endings strangely satisfying. 

A practical joke goes fatally wrong, a Doctor is paid back for the lives he took, a grave robber digs up the wrong person, a journal changes a will reading, cryogenic payback, a magician’s deadly obsession, a fatal attraction to wealth, a cult member’s mistake, beware dangerous dogs, a women’s journey to freedom and ending with a story of cosmic connectedness. 

These are such fantastic tales, a short story collection to chill the heart, they live up to the adage “be careful what you wish for”. 

Thank you John for the ebook to read and review. By the way the cover art is stunning.
