'A rare treat' - J.G. Harlond, author of 'The Empress Emerald' 'An eclectic mix - quite unputdownable' - B.A. Morton, author of prize-winning crime novel  'Mrs Jones' Five-minute reads. Meet people you will never forget:  the night photographer,  the gynaecologist’s wife,  the rescue dog.  Dip into whatever suits your mood,  from comedy to murders; from fantastic stories  to blog posts, by way of love poetry. Fully illustrated in black and white by the author;  Jean Gill’s original photographs are  as thought-provoking as her writing. An out of body experience for adventurous readers. Or, of course, you can ’Live Safe’. Not for you the blind alley on a dark night, wolf-lope pacing you step for step as shadows flare on the walls. Watch the trailer youtube.com/watch?v=Ug0Pf14oT6Y
