  Never-before-published fiction by one of the finest war authors of the twentieth century In 1943, a young soldier named James Jones returned from the Pacific, lightly wounded and psychologically tormented by the horrors of Guadalcanal. When he was well enough to leave the hospital, he went AWOL rather than return to service, and began work on a novel of the World War II experience. Jones’s AWOL period was brief, but he returned to the novel at war’s end, bringing him to the attention of Maxwell Perkins, the legendary editor of Fitzgerald, Hemingway, and Thomas Wolfe. Jones would then go on to write From Here to Eternity, the National Book Award–winning novel that catapulted him into the ranks of the literary elite. Now, for the first time, Jones’s earliest writings are presented here, as a collection of stories about man and war, a testament to the great artist he was about to become. This ebook features an illustrated biography of James Jones including rare photos from the author’s estate.

  JUSTICE — A Crewell story (c35 mins) 
  A convict is tormented by his wife’s memory — and his lack of one…  
  OLD FLAME — A twisted tale of lust, obsession and revenge (c70 mins)

  THE BUTCHER — A Cockney killer thriller (c45 mins)

  Why Short Shots? 
  If these dark and disturbingly twisted 'short shots' leave you wanting more, they will have achieved their purpose. 
  Some of the characters and themes of the author's novels in The Remorseless Trilogy were inspired by these mini-thrillers. In fact, vicious psychopath Antony Harding, eponymous 'star' of The Butcher, plays a major role in book two of that series, so if you feel the urge to meet this unreformed reprobate again, you may do so... 
  But be warned—like all this author's fictional works—his stories are not for the faint-hearted.

  This classic tale of intrigue, mystery and adventure takes place on the ivory harvesting and trade route in the Congo, in the depths of Africa. In this audiobook, Marlow, a sea captain on a ship at anchor, retells a story of his assignment upon a steamer ship in the Congo to a group of his ship mates. During his mission he is asked to retrieve and return Kurtz, an ivory hunter with a resounding reputation where ever his name is mentioned, who delivers more ivory than all the other stations combined, and who has a reverenced effect on the natives. Passages and references from the book are sprinkled through other writings and "The Heart of Darkness" was the base content for the movie "Apocalypse Now" by Francis Ford Coppola.
