  ## About the Book
  
  
  A collection of twelve darkly disturbing, twisted stories from the author of
  _Roofworld_ , _Spanky_ and the acclaimed Bryant and May novels. But don’t
  expect to read about vampires, werewolves, or ghouls or ghosts, or dolls
  coming to life or brain-eating zombies. And as for lake-dwelling demons,
  malevolent spirits, misogynistic slashers or children locked in attics, you
  can forget them …
  
  
  Instead, here you have twelve stories of desperate people in seemingly
  ordinary situations – workers in offices, friends in pubs, husbands and wives
  in apartments and houses. All of them the most unlikely – and therefore the
  most likely – to find themselves trapped within their own personal, private,
  unimaginable, nerve-fracturing, bizarre and yes, deadly visions of Hell …
