In this new, definitive collection, multiple Bram Stoker Award-win-
ning author David Niall Wilson presents a combination of his best
published work, and a selection of new, dark tales, some drawn from
childhood memories, and others inspired by passion, and pain.
A man is called to the tiny, dying town where he spent years with his
grandparents, only to be drawn into memories that were never what
they seemed. A different perspective on Jack the Ripper, inspired by
Patricia Cornwell. An unexpected inheritance takes a winding path
through Native American folklore straight into cosmic horror.
From the novelette that birthed one of his most popular novels, to a
personal experience that changed his life, the author leads readers
down trails that define his work, and his vision. These stories exem-
plify the title of his website, Writing What Hurts. You see, he wants to
tell you a story.
