Description
FIVE NOVELLAS Revenge, deceit, murder, regret, conspiracy are the motives that drive this collection of five stories by five writers. BEST WHEN IT'S COLD: Jonathan Hesford Revenge, it's said, is a dish best eaten cold. When Tim Farnham embarks upon an act of vengeance against his former boss, Paul Scriber, and as a result finds his comfortable middle-class world disintegrating around him, he wishes wholeheartedly he'd taken heed of that sage advice. ROUGH DIAMONDS: Lyn Potier Alf and Vera liked the quiet life, but getting a letter seemed to change everything even though everything was not quite what it seemed. CLEANING UP: Susan Wallace Annie and Bob moved to Cornwall, intending to settle into a peaceful retirement but when Bob becomes ill, Annie's obsession with cleaning up takes over, with tragic consequences. SHIPS THAT PASS IN THE NIGHT: Malcolm Orr ‘Old and young, we are all on our last cruise.' Henry Wadsworth Longfellow CONSPIRACY: Henry Kitchen 'There is a cracking sound in the political atmosphere: the sound of consensus breaking up.' Richard Crossman .
