  Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart.  A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. 
   
  In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author?  
   
  The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme.  Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. 
   
  Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made.  If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something. 
   
  In this volume stories from the Masters of Horror take centre stage.  Within the words from the pens of Edgar Allan Poe, E T A Hoffman, H G Wells, Guy de Maupassant and others lurk dark intentions of evil.   As each story draws you in, so it is that uneasy, unsettling feelings begin to creep into our heads.  It’s only a matter of time before things go decidedly from bad to much, much worse.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  Margaret returns to her dreary hometown for the funeral of her father, Rich O’Toole. Haunted by a childhood marked by emotional neglect and cruelty from her mother Sabrina and sister Estelle, Margaret reflects on the rare highlights in her life: her father’s quiet support and the mentorship of Beatrice Hodges, a young librarian who nurtured her intellect and fostered her interests in the occult.As Margaret reconnects with her past, she uncovers the full extent of her mother’s betrayal—Sabrina manipulated the legal system to ruin her father and send him to an early grave.Margaret’s grief and rage awaken a deeper power within her, one rooted in a mysterious book gifted by Beatrice on her eighteenth birthday. This ancient tome, Les trois révélations de Justine du Avignon, contains three life-altering incantations. Having already used two, Margaret prepares to invoke the third, her return becoming a reckoning—not just with her family’s sins, but with her own capacity to see justice for her father and the satisfaction that comes with retribution.
