In Barry John Watson's second collection of short stories, visit places where the line between reality and the unknown becomes blurred; places where something dark twists tales of love, loss and loneliness into nightmare scenarios. A son uncovers unwanted truths regarding his late father. A polar expedition ends in horror that leads to unexpected consequences. What strange secret do four paintings hold? How can a salesman of the year repeat past glories and why does an astronaut become obsessed with his craft's ejector bay? Discover what happens when a childless couple move into an old house and find a dummy's head hidden in the attic. Learn of Jack the Ripper's true identity, how a hangman regrets his moment of cowardice, and of the terrible game a small boy is forced to play in a Second World War concentration camp. These and a host of other tales make 'Loose Wires,' a read guaranteed to raise hackles and chill the blood. Reality and the unknown; don't get lost between the two.
