Synopsis

Two women have learned something shocking about their friend’s husband—and revealing it could either save her or destroy her . . .   During a night out at the pub, Stella and Carly accept an invitation to a local party, but the scene they find there is not what they expected. It’s a swingers’ event—and their friend Jesse’s husband is there among the swingers.   Now the two women aren’t sure what to do. Stella, who works with Jesse at the library, is inclined to keep quiet. She doesn’t want to poke her nose into someone else’s marriage, and on top of that, she knows Jesse is facing a potential job loss. The last thing she needs is more stress. Carly, on the other hand, thinks telling the truth is the right thing to do. Meanwhile, the angry threats from Jesse’s husband warning them to keep their mouths shut only make the situation worse.   As the two deal with their own personal lives—Stella facing a marital separation and an ailing mother-in-law, Carly coping with loneliness as her husband works long hours—they find themselves blurting out the shocking news. And even as dark secrets about Jesse’s situation are revealed, Stella and Carly will make some discoveries of their own.

    Laird Barron's acclaimed crime saga makes a triumphant return in The Wind Began to Howl, an all-new story set after the events of Worse Angels. A seemingly benign case gradually pulls mob enforcer-turned-PI Isaiah Coleridge into a chilling mix of music, movie magic, mayhem, and madness. 
     
     
     
    This time, Coleridge's dark journey forces him to confront a brutal truth: For some who try to escape the past, there is no way out. 
     
     
     
    "Hardboiled and trippy at the same time, The Wind Began to Howl by Laird Barron is a twisted ride through the darker recesses of the mind complete with conspiracy theories, ex-government operatives, movie madness, and possibly a portal into another dimension." —Alma Katsu, author of The Fervor 
     
     
     
    "Isaiah Coleridge hits back hard in this bare-knuckle novella that's equal parts Hollyweird fiction and conspiracy-laden Catskills noir." —Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Ghost Eaters

    Slim Reynolds never asked for much out of life. A good horse under him, a wide stretch of prairie, and honest work at the Flying H Ranch were enough. Folks called him Slim because he was tall and lean as a fence rail—but the horses knew him for something else entirely. 
    They said he could whisper to a horse and have it gentled in minutes. 
    But there was one thing Slim could never tame—his feelings for Caroline Harlan, the rancher's daughter. 
    To her, Slim was the quiet ranch hand who had grown up around the barns. A boy she'd known since childhood. 
    Then trouble rides into the valley. 
    Horse thieves begin stealing the Flying H's finest stock, and the ranch stands on the brink of ruin. 
    Now Slim must ride into danger to save the ranch… 
    and prove he's more than just the skinny cowboy who talks to horses.

    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.
