The Downward Slide

From the author of, "Danny Yates Must Die," "Mr Landen Has No Brain," "Fatal Inheritance," and, "Keep Those Things Away From Me," comes a collection of six tales of the supernatural. In, "The Downward Slide," we encounter strange events in strange places - and often stranger events in humdrum places. We meet a Victorian super-sleuth who doesn't stick to the script, a young girl on a mission, a God with a god complex, a writer who does worrying things with cats, a seaside resort destabilised by the arrival of a stranger, and a boy who finds a little magic in the unlikeliest of locations. It's all a bit dark, it's all a bit discomfiting and it all takes place in a world where no one finds any easy answers. 20,000 words.
