Don't Read Alone: A collection of short stories

A collection of short stories by an award-winning master of horror and suspense!

In his new bestselling series of Hitchcockian crime novels, cop-turned-author Paul Finch is busy bringing darkness and terror into the world of fictional law-enforcement.

In both Stalkers and Sacrifice, and the next few novels to come, Finch pitches Detective Sergeant Mark ‘Heck’ Heckenburg, a hard-edged but likeable young cop, against a range of killers and madmen drawn from society’s worst nightmares. The Nice Guys Club, the Desecrator, the M1 Maniacs, the Lady Killer – these are all human adversaries, yet so twisted and depraved that they might as well be real monsters.

And ‘real monsters’ is the realm into which Finch is ready to take you next, as he goes one step further with Don’t Read Alone, a new collection of full-on horror short stories.

In The Poppet a faceless wooden doll holds the secret to a chilling curse …

In Hell in the Cathedral, a bunch of tourists are marooned at the mercy of a voracious sea-beast …

In The Baleful Dead an ageing heavy metal band reunite at a lonely mansion, unaware of the bloodthirsty forces lingering in the nearby wood …

Check out these and several other nerve-shredding tales (including the winner of the International Horror Guild Award for 2007) … if you think you’ve got the guts!
