In this lovelorn short story collection, lives are woven together by common themes of loss, betrayal, and revenge. Men and women are at their breaking points - and anything could happen. But beware - there are no happy endings among these tales, only heartache and disillusion. From the hardboiled stories The Ape House and Love Noir, to the post-apocalyptic After and Us Chickens, there's a little something for everyone. Don't be fooled by the lighter moments of A Slow Burn and A Monkey Walks Into a Bar, where devastation slips in through the cracks, or the layers of deception hidden in The Other Shoe. This novella-length collection bursting with noir, domestic noir, thrills, and chills is perfect for Mondays, rainy days, or any time you need a little pick-me-down.
