After the scene-setting introductory piece, we join Gavin on his quest to “write what he sees.” I have to say, I’ve met authors much like he was before his accident. This is a tight little collection of stories, urban horror, as promised. There is something here for everyone, with a dash of social commentary tossed in for good measure. The sheriff gets more than he bargained for when he asks what all the strangeness in town is about, and why – despite his inability to stop or catch more of those responsible – no one seems upset. A highly recommended debut collection. |
