  We all have deep-seated fears: monsters, the unknown, death. My Dreadful Dreams: 13 Tales of Terror brings these and other horrors to life in unsettling worlds where average people overcome—or succumb to—their darkest dreams: 
  A child accidentally summons a demon, which is then soul-bound to protect her for life; a frightened woman fleeing her abuser finds shelter at an unusual motel; the voice of God speaks to a devout teenager for the first time—but what He asks of her isn’t what she expected; a man longing for affection, and more than a casual friendship, meets a shy boy. These grim, disturbing, and dangerously grotesque short stories—and more—await you. 
  Reader beware: your dreams may be dreadful tonight.

  A night drive across Dartmoor in a gale, beside a doctor who will not turn back, is only the beginning for Betty Carew: behind it stands a secret brotherhood, the Sons of Ragousa, which works with poison and patience and has men in places nobody would suspect. Bill Holbrook sets out to break its grip, and the chase runs from the moor to London and out to sea. Wallace at his most efficient: the plot moves, and nobody is safe. Fifty-eight plates of paintings from 1850 to 1922, among them Sickert's London streets and Brighton Pierrots, track the story's course from the moor to the city and out to sea.

  The fires of a dream burned and stoked behind young Angus Faraday's eyes. He longed to be somewhere other than the four walls of his workplace. The anvil and the casting iron seemed to mock him silently whispering to his young ears that this would be the only life he would ever know. Such a possibility was not a terrible thing, mind you. Not for some men, however, young Angus Faraday could not accept such a fate. His spirit was bold, daring, and strong and he could not accept such a fate. Even if it seemed to be inevitable and set in stone.

  Colton Gray doesn't look like your typical deputy marshal. He's too young and good-looking for a West Texas lawman. At least that's what his boss thinks. As captain, Marshal John Timmons feels this new kid Colton isn't up to the job—at least not yet—so he sends him on minor assignments to keep him out of Boot Hill. But to everyone's surprise, young Colton manages to track down Eli Doolin and Casey Tubbs, the notorious "Old Man Bank Robbers." Not only that, he claims he gunned them down in a shootout, earning high praise from the West Texas chief marshal's office. And a legend is born . . . 
   
   
   
  But there's a hitch to the story: Colton Gray lied. 
   
   
   
  Truth is, he never killed Doolin and Tubbs—not after learning the righteous reasons behind their crimes. Instead, he let those good old boys go free, as long as they promised to stop robbing banks. Sure, Colton may have bent the rules a little. But Colton knows he did the right thing. Sometimes a man has to forge his own path on the road to justice—even if that means going outside the law. Or lying to your boss. In his heart of hearts, Colton Gray knows he was born for the job of US deputy marshal. And sometimes that job gets a little dirty . . .
