    It is possible to be blinded by the light of another human being. Especially one you love. The seemingly happiest people are often hiding the darkest secrets. Smiling through pain many of us could not even fathom, let alone survive. All the while continuing to bring joy to the people around them, blissfully oblivious to the suffering of their loved one. 
    "The ignorant often argue, that if two people really were so connected, in any form of love, they would have noticed something was not right. 
    Well, I will tell you this much… While that is often not the case, a day hasn’t gone by that I haven’t tormented myself with those same gut-wrenching thoughts.” - Ryder 
    Joy Ride is a short story that takes place within the same world as the Saviors MC Series. It is a dark tale about friendship and revenge.

    Broster served as secretary to Charles Harding Firth, a Professor of History for several years, and collaborated on several of his works. Her first two novels were co-written with a college friend, Gertrude Winifred Taylor. 
    With the Great War interrupting her literary ambitions she served as a Red Cross nurse at a Franco-American hospital, but returned to England with a knee infection in 1916.  
    After the war, she moved near to Battle in East Sussex and took up writing full-time.  
    In 1920 she at last received her Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts from Oxford. 
    Her novels, mainly historical fiction, peaked in popularity with ‘The Flight of the Heron’, in 1925, a best-seller followed up by two sequels. 
    As well as poetry and various articles she also wrote several short stories, the best known of which is a classic of weird fiction ‘The Couching at the Door’ in which an artist appears to be haunted by a mysterious entity. 
    An intensely private individual many readers deduced from her name that she was both a man and Scottish. 
    D K Broster died in Bexhill Hospital on 7th February 1950.  She was 73.

    The guy in the dirty grey fedora looked like he might have come out of the Bellevue Morgue—off a slab. He was big and his jaw jutted over the edge of his upturned coat collar. His eyes shifted all over as if he was waiting for somebody to pick up any time.  
    His shoes were broken and the upper of one had gone rotten with wet. Each time he took a step it squelched. His fingers, inside his coat-pocket, were clasped round the butt of a .38 police Positive that had once been issued to a copper who got himself cited for bravery in the line of duty the day after they buried him. 
    He turned off Bowery at Kenmare. He was limping. He had a blister on his right foot where the shoe was broken. He hastened his steps with an effort. On Mott he saw the newsboy. 
    The limping guy looked around, and worked up slowly towards the boy. 
    The boy made a play of selling him a news-sheet. The limping guy took it. On the front page he could see his own picture, and across the top of the sheet was a banner caption—"Fremer Breaks Jail—Kills Two Guards." 
    That was him! 
    This is a classic short story featuring Peter Cheyney’s popular detective Lemmy Caution.

    In this new collection, Richard Thomas has crafted fourteen stories that push the boundaries of dark fiction in an intoxicating, piercing blend of fantasy, science fiction, and horror. Equally provocative and profound, each story is masterfully woven with transgressive themes that burrow beneath the skin. - A poker game yields a strange prize that haunts one man, his game of chance now turned into a life-or-death coin flip. - A set of twins find they have mysterious new powers when an asteroid crashes in a field near their house and the decisions they make create an uneasy balance. - A fantasy world is filled with one man’s desire to feel whole again, finally finding love, only to have the shocking truth of his life exposed in an appalling twist. - A father and son work slave labor in a brave new world run by aliens and mount a rebellion that may end up freeing them all. - A clown takes off his make-up in a gloomy basement to reveal something more horrifying under the white, tacky skin. Powerful and haunting, Thomas’s transportive collection dares you to examine what lies in the darkest, most twisted corners of human existence and not be transformed by what you find. A foreword by Brian Evenson is included.
