Take his hand and follow him into the darkness ...John Connolly, bestselling author of seven brilliantly scary mystery novels, now turns his pen to the short story to give us a volume of chilling tales of the supernatural.
In this macabre collection, echoing masters of the genre from M R James to Stephen King, Connolly delves into our darkest fears -- lost lovers, missing children, subterranean creatures and predatory demons. Framing the collection are two substantial novellas -- The Cancer Cowboy Rides charts the fatal progress of a modern-day grim reaper, while The Reflecting Eye is a haunted house tale with a twist and marks the return of private detective Charlie Parker, the troubled hero of Connolly's crime novels.
This edition contains two additional stories -- The Cycle and Mr Gray's Folly -- not previously included. Nocturnes is a masterly volume to be read with the lights on - menace has never been so seductive ...
