We fear discovery when we should fear what there is to discover.

Lovecraft and his successors show a world where human civilisation is only a thin veneer over black seas of ignorance. A world where men exalted for their reason uncover logic-defying truths. A world where the marginalised discover uncaring horror on the fringes of a society that rejects them. A world where the bonds between us unravel.

But what of those who wear their own averageness like a veneer? Neither drawn toward the horror by academic curiosity nor driven their by society, but unmoored by a mundane secret.

A Spanish priest struggling with base desires plots to save a native child from brutal sacrifice.

A veteran hiding the extent of his mental wounds discovers the true war on terror is very different.

A delinquent's secret passion for stamp collecting draws him into a dark bargain.

And nine more tales of overtly normal people coming adrift in an incomprehensible universe.

Über den Autor Dave Higgins

Dave Higgins writes speculative fiction, often with a dark edge. Despite forays into the mundane worlds of law and IT, he was unable to completely escape the liminal zone between mystery and horror. A creature of contradictions, he also co-writes comic sci-fi with Simon Cantan.Born in the least mystically significant part of Wiltshire, England, and raised by a librarian, he started reading shortly after birth and has not stopped since. He currently lives in Bristol with his wife, Nicola, his cats, Jasper and Una, a plush altar to the Dark Lord Cthulhu, and many shelves of books.It's rumoured he writes out of a fear that he will otherwise run out of things to read.To receive notification when Dave releases a new book, sign up to his mailing list at http://simoncantan.com/join-the-higgins-cantan-mailing-list/"Dave Higgins weaves a cocoon of dread around you and won't let you out" - Simon Cantan, author of the Bytarend Series."There's a running theme of the otherworldly, ranging from the very grounded and possibly-coincidental... to the dangerously potent...." - Neil Murton, author of Magpie Tales.Blog: davidjhiggins.wordpress.comTwitter: @David_J_HigginsGoogle+: google.com/+DaveHigginsPinterest: pinterest.com/davidjhiggins
