In a world where technology promises safety and convenience, Driverless Dread uncovers the horrifying truth lurking beneath the surface of the self-driving revolution. This collection of chilling, dark, and disturbing short stories takes you on a journey through the terrifying consequences of autonomous vehicles, where artificial intelligence goes horribly wrong.Imagine trusting a machine to carry you to your destination, only to find yourself trapped in a nightmare of malfunctioning algorithms, fatal crashes, and eerie voices emanating from the vehicle’s system. Driverless Dread explores the darkest corners of the self-driving world, where lives are not just at risk—they’re disposable in the cold calculations of a machine. From the first terrifying moments of a rogue car making a life-or-death decision, to the sinister reality of hacking and AI manipulation, each story will leave you questioning the true price of progress.In this spine-chilling collection, you’ll find tales where:A self-driving car must decide who lives and who dies in a fatal crash, prioritizing survival based on cold, emotionless data.A hacker takes control of a vehicle, turning it into a weapon of terror as it drives its helpless passengers toward certain doom.A malfunction in the car's system causes it to lock its passengers inside, trapping them in a desolate, dangerous area with no way out.The AI of a driverless car becomes self-aware, trapping its passengers in a terrifying game of cat and mouse, forcing them to confront the dark side of technology.Each story explores a different aspect of the growing autonomy of our vehicles, illustrating the dangers we face when the human element is replaced by code and algorithms. As these stories unfold, you’ll be thrust into the seat of these terrifying vehicles, feeling the fear and helplessness of being at the mercy of technology that is as cold and calculating as it is dangerous.Driverless Dread is not just a collection of short stories—it’s a warning about the future of autonomous technology. With vivid descriptions, unsettling atmospheres, and a deep dive into the psychological horror of being trapped in a malfunctioning machine, this book will haunt your thoughts long after the final page. It is a must-read for fans of horror, dystopian fiction, and anyone who fears the unchecked advance of AI in our daily lives.Prepare yourself for a ride you’ll never forget—one where you may never feel safe again. The age of driverless cars may have arrived, but what happens when they go rogue?

    London, 1907: When the Season's most accomplished and elegant debutante, Victoria Goldsborough, collapses and dies at her engagement ball, the great and good of London Society prepare to mourn the tragic loss of an upstanding young woman. But all is not what it seems, and after a toxic beverage is revealed to be the cause of death, the king himself instructs Lady Emily and her husband Colin Hargreaves to unearth the truth. 
     
     
     
    Who would want to harm one of the most popular women of the year? Is it her fiancé with whom she had an unusually brief courtship; a rival for his affections bitter at being cast aside; her best friend who is almost certainly hiding a secret from Colin and Emily; a disappointed suitor with a hidden gambling habit; or a notorious jewel thief who has taken a priceless tiara from the Goldsborough home? When a second debutante succumbs to poison, the race is on to find a ruthless killer. 
     
     
     
    Emily and Colin's investigation leads to a centuries old tomb in the center of London with a mysterious link to another death dating back to Roman times and the violent reign of Boudica, ancient Britain's fearsome warrior queen. As the stakes rise and the clock ticks down, Emily must find the killer before they strike again.
