Publisher's Synopsis
Duelists play out an ancient game, while children worship at new altars. A little girl's imaginary friend is her new father's worst enemy. The most unusual appetites are satisfied. A killer finds his needs can be met for a price, and a thief pays his final debt, one finger at a time. Twelve remarkable stories to be read in the dark. "Fear and love are blended together . . . . This collection will tantalize the palate of most anyone's literary taste." - Seattle Sinner
