The sleep of reason breeds monsters in this collection of terror tales. Some of the most frightening monsters are those that come in human form: The ex-undercover cop haunted by the dead child whose identity he stole... The abused ex-convent girl who develops an affinity with Medusa... The severed hand that forges literary works... The budding psychopath whose doppelganger takes the rap for his misdeeds... The man in the black suit with boiled jelly eyes who haunts the corridors of a council flat... These and other horrors stalk the ages, from eighteenth century West Africa to nineteen-fifties Brighton ... from the killing fields of the English Civil War to the playing fields of an exclusive school ... from the Munster plantation in sixteenth century Ireland to a sugar plantation in nineteen-thirties Haiti... "This is Tom Johnstone at his best, the master of the slow reveal..." - Colleen Anderson
Maybe it's better if some movies stay lost. It's 1965, and Herb Fry is reminiscing about the time about twenty years before when a reclusive collector sent him to track down a movie that shouldn't exist. The studio destroyed every copy after its tragic first screening. But we all know lost movies have a habit of being found. Prepare yourself for a trip into the cinema's heart of darkness to discover an early talkie whose soundtrack is a killer.
1934: Investigative reporter Herb Fry moves to New York to get away from the Klan, but if he thought writing pieces on the paranormal would be safer, he's in for a shock. The Big Apple's crawling with German American Bund Nazis, who are a little jumpy because a horror movie buff with supernatural powers and a taste for elaborate set-piece murders is picking them off one by one. Will Herb ever find out who murdered the love of his life? And how will he survive long enough to interview Bela Lugosi?
50,000 Irishmen died in World War I - all of whom were volunteers. The Irish were mobilized in three divisions - the 10th, the 16th and the 36th as well as in the traditional Irish regiments. This book looks at these regiments and their activities during the 1914-18 war.
