“James, who may be one of Britain’s most underrated crime fiction writers, produces a shocker packed with menace and very black humor.” —Booklist, starred review Britain, 1956. A young actress seemingly tries to commit suicide over a tangled love affair, but is taken to the hospital and her life saved. The story is just the sort of thing that journalist Ian Charteris likes to cover: a poignant mix of near tragedy, possible thwarted romance, and glamour, needing sensitive but—of course—dramatic treatment. It should be a routine assignment, a welcomed assignment. It would be, if it weren’t for the identity of the young woman. She may—just may—be Ian’s sister. The unwelcomed reminder of the past drags Ian back into memories of places and events he’d rather forget. As far as Ian is concerned, the past is a foreign country. And not just foreign. Fundamentally and cantankerously hostile. Vengeful, war-torn, dangerous. It is impossible to escape the past; the noose is already around Ian’s neck, and every step he takes tightens it . . . And this is not the only noose. “James spins an effective psychological tale of a man whose past shapes his future.” —Publishers Weekly

Roads are interstitial spaces, their only purpose to take you from one place to another. In most cases, roads only connect two places in the real world. But occasionally, a road crosses the borderline into the unknown. That’s when things can come through, terrible things that lurk by the side of the road for the unwary traveller. A car full of drunk teenagers on their way home from a festival encounter something terrible in the woods of Northwest Germany… Nina delivers newspapers in the wee hours of the night and pays no attention to the pets that go missing in the neighbourhood… or the strange sounds echoing from the sewer grilles… On a lonely country road in northern Spain, a truck driver encounters the ghosts of a terrible past… So buckle up and get ready to meet the horrors that lurk by the side of the road. But be careful, because every encounter with them might be your last… This is a collection of three tales of roadside horror of 9500 words altogether by Hugo winner Cora Buhlert.
