  In this erotic forest fantasy we find ourselves acquainted with Wisteria, a beautiful if somewhat naïve orphan, forced to live with her domineering grandmother - the all-knowing Forest Witch. When our sweet young heroine falls deeply in love with a boy from a nearby village of elves, granny does everything in her power to stop him from taking the young girl’s virginity. With hormones raging, will Wisteria escape the clutches of her wicked guardian? And if so, how will she react to the ecstasy of the sacred rights of hymen? 
  This erotic short story from Erin Pim contains highly sexualised language and graphically descriptive passages of an adult nature. It is therefore intended solely for a mature, open-minded audience.

  Throughout the long centuries of human history is the want, and the need, to share information, to exchange ideas and for that knowledge and experience, for curiosity and learning, to be the basis of a civil society. 
  In literature the ambition is much narrower.  In order to be known, to be popular, you had to be published.  And for that people had to know you existed and your ideas worth reading.  Obviously for most of humanity’s time people couldn’t read and texts couldn’t be published in any great number. 
  In the 15th Century Gutenberg’s printing press began the revolution to address the second and by the 19th century had gathered pace with startling speed and mass distribution.  Education for the many was brought in to help people understand more of their world and, with new skills, how to have a better place within it.  Now, if the powers that owned the presses and means of distribution agreed an audience would now be able to avail themselves of your ideas, your printed words.  
  Sadly, in the thirst for the new, the recent and the past fell from sight, relegated to dark corners and dusty shelves.   
  But the printed word is rarely without someone, somewhere busying themselves through piles of papers and books rediscovering what a good story is, whatever its age.

  For the past twenty years, Lee Child has been one of the bestselling authors in the world, thanks to the popularity of his iconic and instantly recognizable hero Jack Reacher.

Meticulously plotted and packed with Child's trademark action and suspense, this collection shows the author's mastery of the short form. 
   
   
   
  In "Ten Keys," a drug-dealing hit man feels that he must unburden his fears and guilt to a stranger. A rookie cop in "Normal in Every Way" is assigned to the department's file room, where he makes connections to historic dates that could lead to solving crimes. A methodical bodyguard quits his job when he's outsmarted. A military mission is planned to perfection. A potential worker for the Manhattan Project is carefully surveilled by an FBI agent. A killer preys on other killers. Taken together, these stories are a riotous calamity of criminals and crime fighters; individually, they are expertly crafted, piercing tales that hit hard enough to leave a mark.
