Sinopsis

Robert "Rab" Munro's only refuge is the sea.
 
Aboard the Dundee clipper Grissel Jaffray, Munro's sailor life of brawls and brothels is a familiar chaos, until a mysterious card inscribed with religious verses and a strange castaway challenge everything he knows.
 
As the Grissel Jaffray sails through storms both literal and spiritual, the card's cryptic changes hint at a divine test. Munro believes that Death awaits him on land. Soon, he faces the Seven Deadly Sins personified among the crew - and in himself. With each choice, the veil between superstition and truth grows thinner.
 
A story of survival and faith, Malcolm Archibald's THE BAY OF DECEPTIVE MIST is an allegorical adventure set on the high seas.

    The collected short stories of the great Victor Canning, originally written and published in the 1950s and 1960s – full of humour, charm, and in true fashion of classic crime writing. 
    Canning’s heart-warming vignettes and clever mysteries take us from a Welsh valley to a far-off island and across the French countryside – introducing unforgettable characters and stories along the way.  Praise for Victor Canning: 
    ‘His gift of story-telling is obviously innate. Rarely does one come on so satisfying an amalgam of plot, characterisation and good writing.’ Punch 
    ‘Quite delightful … with an atmosphere of quiet contentment and humour that cannot fail to charm.’ Daily Telegraph 
    ‘A swift-moving novel, joyous, happy and incurably optimistic.’ Evening Standard 
    ‘There is such a gentle humour in the book.’ Daily Sketch 
    ‘What counts for most in the story … is his mounting pleasure in vagabondage and the English scene.’ The Times 
    ‘A paean to the beauties of the English countryside and the lovable oddities of the English character.’ New York Times

    A train seems a very reliable mode to bring out the best in authors and sometimes the worst in their fictional characters.  In this volume our narratives are usually set inside the carriage compartment where they are really are up close and personal with each other.  All our authors need to do is to light the touchpaper and stand well back.
