  STANDING IN THE SHADOW OF DEATH - THE SWORD OF DAMASCUS 
  BOOK 3 OF 3 IN THE DEMON GORGE TRILOGY – THE FINALE 
  Gideon couldn’t believe what he was seeing. He was spellbound and awe-stricken. 
  The apparition glided nearer and nearer. The detective could now see clearly that the spirit was carrying in her arms an actual baby child, alive and well, one that was as beautiful as one of the cherubim of heaven with a yellow halo of light encircling its form. It was only the light that illuminated the woman’s form. 
  Gideon remained frozen, not moving a limb of his body. 
  The apparition glided over to the dry well. Then, with her back to Gideon, the baby clasped to her chest, and her head bent over the edge of the well, she looked down into the deep, dark shaft below her. 
  “Oh, my God,” Gideon whispered, “by all that is Holy!” cried the detective. “By the power of the Holy Spirit, be it ghost or flesh and blood, I will not allow her to throw that child into the well!” 
  And with that said, he began running up to the well where the woman or spirit stood, ready to kill another child. Finally, he got there where the radiant form of the woman with the baby in her hands and her eyes fixed on the depths of the well in front of her! 
  Gideon reached her, intending to seize her from behind and whirl her with the child from the brink of the dry well. But ---.”

  A long-lost screenplay for a notorious, never-filmed episode of the original Hammer House of Horror series has been novelised, revealing the chilling story that was so cursed, it shut down the entire second season of the show. 
  The Blood That Binds plunges into a seemingly ordinary market town where a terrifying, centuries-old ritual has taken root. A man is imprisoned in a cold, damp cellar, suspended on a hook as a captive witness to unthinkable horrors orchestrated by the merciless figure named Huseevo. 
  As the prisoner endures intense psychological torment and physical pain, he listens to the methodical snick-snick of a blade being sharpened, knowing the ritual—the feeding—is about to begin on another unseen victim. This is not a story of a haunted house, but a home where pure, ancient evil is deliberately cultivated, requiring a constant stream of new souls to sustain its existence for another century. 
  The man's only hope for survival is to carry the knowledge of the truth to the outside world, as requested by those who have already been consumed. 
  A tale of psychological dread, ancient pacts, and the cruellest role of all: not the victim, but the witness who lives to remember the horror that binds us all.

  The Double was published in 1846. A classic of doppelgänger literature, it is conidered one of Dostoyvesky's most significant shorter works.
  
  Our protagonist, Golyadkin senior, is persecuted by his double, Golyadkin junior, who resembles him closely in almost every detail. The latter abuses the former with mounting scorn and brutality as the tale proceeds toward its frightening denouement.
  Fyodor Dostoyevsky was a Russian novelist, journalist, and short-story writer who had an immense influence on 20th-century fiction. He is commonly regarded as one of the finest novelists who ever lived, penning classics that include: Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, Demons, and The Brothers Karamazov. His ideas profoundly shaped literary modernism, existentialism, and various schools of psychology, theology, and literary criticism.

  Charles Dickens was a writer and social critic who created some of the world's best-known fictional characters and is regarded as the greatest novelist of the Victorian era. His works enjoyed unprecedented popularity during his lifetime, and by the twentieth century critics and scholars had recognised him as a literary genius. His novels and short stories enjoy lasting popularity.
  THE GREAT TASMANIA'S CARGO: It is in the nature of things that such an institution as our English army should have many bad and troublesome characters in it. But, this is a reason for, and not against, its being made as acceptable as possible to well-disposed men of decent behaviour.
