The uneasy feeling that you’ve forgotten to do something; the sound of a flat note in an otherwise perfect piano concerto. A quiet evening disrupted by a slight creak of a floorboard when you are alone in the house.
The stories in this collection all hinge on the precipice of this uncanny feeling.
Ranging from horror to science fiction, the short stories include a detective investigating the resurrection of a suspect, a man and his guardian angel drinking at a bar, the physical manifestation of anxiety, the boogie man detained by the CIA, a Shakespearian roleplaying game and many others.
