The Cold Black (ePub)

"These stories creep up on you, then unleash the terrors" - Horror Reads

In his stunning debut horror collection, James Atkinson delivers a page-turning nightmare that never relents.

From the opening page of Still Remains, where Beverly Gilbert walks into a haunting situation that's sure to scare her into changing professions, to Tiny House, where you meet a couple who have just learned of their inability to have children, these stories take readers down the cold, black corridors of turmoil, pain, and redemption. In Middle Of Nowhere, two best friends on a road trip stumble upon a house in a field that holds supernatural secrets no one wants told. The Guillotine introduces us to Red Kendrick, a man dying of pancreatic cancer, who has an incredible, death-bed story to tell. In The Cold Black, we learn that sometimes the skeleton's in the closet are waiting to get out, and someone has to pay for putting them there. Scott Williams makes the discover of the century in Pizza Delivery. Street Lights follows three teenage boys as they spend time playing Nintendo and watching MTV, not realizing that one of them was about to go missing and the other two would stop at nothing to find their buddy. The Meatman tells the fate of Michael and Joanne, a homeless couple whose luck turns for the better when Michael meets the meatman and is hired on the spot. What Creeps Below will take you down a path of fears and phobias, and As I Lay Me Down To Sleep pits Detective McSorley against serial killer Nathan Reed in this twisty, and shocking finale.
