Finch, Paul - Ill Met In Darkness

A quartet of unrelated, though bracing, chilly tales, set away from the urban hustle bustle.
“Snicker Snack” examines the collector. A cult illustrator and, perhaps, an unfinished work. Or perhaps a canvas considered too abhorrent for public display.
Two ex special forces soldiers are drawn into the search for treasure in “Down To A Sunless Sea.” Thrills and adventure abound in a rattling yarn.
Another two men, criminal hitmen this time, have an assignment in a godforsaken village. Dark fortune favors them, however, as it is Guy Fawkes night. The wild revels ought to muffle misdeeds. And “The Hell Wain” is all about misdeeds.
Then there is “Spirit Of The Season.” Yule season, that is. The curious type and his quest for Father Christmas. The old, very old Father Christmas, or whatever earlier, sinister name he was called.
