The five tales here are dark short stories with a twisted tail - not the ending you expect. Sit back on the beach as you read, but don't enter the sea. The first story tells of an agoraphobic woman on her first holiday away with her family. Her children get more than they expected from the water.

An artistic daughter is unhappy with her father's plan to close his art supply shop. Oh, dear, somebody spilt the oils.

Would you take her in if you found a young girl on a lonely road? You had better think long and hard.

Taxidermy is a hobby that interests few people. But in this tale, a man is keen to show off his skills to his girlfriend. Does she get too close to him?

What are the deep meanings of dreams? Tighten your Beltane Belt and find out.

\"Day Nine\" is an anthology of five dark tales. The Day Nine story is set in London around Christmas. Two brothers work in tandem as armed robbers as they case an Indian-owned factory; one brother surprises the other - the crime does not turn out as expected!

Book two, The Scent Of Floss, is different; the heady smell of candy floss wafts into a blind man's care home room. He tells his grandson and those transfixed by his memory of his wife and how he lost his eyesight.

Try, Try, Try tells of a schoolboy whose wishes and hopes do not turn out as planned. He pictures himself with his first love, a new girl to school. But, unfortunately, not all girls are like your picture.

Book four tells of a boy whose legs were injured. He expects service from his family, his mother works hard for him, but his sister is not as helpful. But she does play ouija with him—a big mistake.

The book ends with the tale of the odd life of an Asian woman and two insane siblings. The woman was born disfigured with a cleft palate. She frees a half-brother and his sister from a secure asylum to commit anti-religious crimes.

Book Three in this series follows soon.
