This compelling series of stories by D.R. Hill was shortlisted as one of three collections for the prestigious Eyelands International Book Awards. The stories and novellas are moving and sometimes shocking, offering recurring themes of lost love, response to violent death, and the challenges of coping with injustice. Many of the stories involve revisiting the past, exploring and reassessing the implications of past decisions and events. There is a strong element of the unexplained, running as a consistent thread through the narratives. The stories are very different in location and character and, as well as darkness, there is also humour and absurdity to be found in this collection, which will entertain, grip and intrigue readers.
