'Where Life Meets Death' is a modern collection of short, fictional horror stories. Some of these stories feature brutal crimes, some feature those unimaginable horrors best unspoken, some touch on the paranormal and some just twist and turn with a most unexpected ending.

Except Redemption had some secrets of its own ... and they were even more deadly than what she was trying to escape.

September 1987. The internet is yet to be born, and the iPhone is over twenty years from its inception. A packet of cigarettes costs £1.60 and Rick Astley is number one in the charts with 'Never Gonna Give You Up.' Some things don't change, however; greed, love, jealousy, and a knife sliding through a carotid artery tend to have the same impact on people's lives as they ever did.

It is the summer of 1987.

The man was 100 yards from his moment of destiny. He was oblivious to it, of course. Murderers don't necessarily realise they are killers until a few seconds before it happens. Murderers are sometimes just like you and me. He would never have dreamed that such a thing might happen. Ridiculous. If anyone had told him that today was the day he would turn into a killer, he would have looked at them quizzically; questioning their sanity, instead of his own.

It is Christmas 1987. A perverted criminal sociopath is on the loose. An innocent young woman is murdered in horrific circumstances. DI Stark announces 'Christmas is cancelled,' and his team investigates; aware that every second the maniac is at large moves him closer to his next victim. A second woman is raped and brutalised. How is the killer discovering intimate secrets about his victims? Why does he insist on terrifying them in the lead up to the attacks? What is driving this depravity? Who will the next victim be?

‘I do not know what second it will be, what minute it will be, what hour, or even day. But it will come. You may see it coming. You may not. Regardless, I can guarantee you; there will be a moment like no other when you will draw your last breath. Like it or lump it. And at that moment you will see your final view of the world. However, what I do not know, is whether your last glimpse will be the sympathetic countenance of a loved one or the grotesque, contorted, teeth-clenched face of a crazed killer. Nor do you. That is yet to be determined. Other options are available.’

Could you unwittingly become the target of evil? Could your world be turned upside down and inside out? How could such a thing happen to you? It can’t, can it? Have you ever stopped to consider the transient nature of your life? Do you think that nothing will ever change? That it will always be like this? I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I’m afraid it won’t. Sometimes that is a good thing, and sometimes it is not. Single mum Jane Cooper is forced into an altercation with a woman in a supermarket.

During the 1960s and early 70s Cold War tensions were escalating. Confrontation threatened every innocence we knew. The 2 super powers watched and waited, preparing for nuclear holocaust. The world’s safety depended on this threat of mutual annihilation; it was the only thing keeping us safe. A grim logic soon emerged, nuclear disarmament was not achievable but nuclear war was unthinkable.

In an exhilarating blend of adventure and international intrigue, U.S. field analyst Doc and his partner, Zita, an MI6 agent, are drawn into the harrowing world of espionage where terrorism casts its ugly shadow over innocence.

London Bridge is Falling Down heralds the arrival of a new breed of lightning-paced, intelligent thriller - surprising at every twist, absorbing at every turn, and in the end, utterly unpredictable - right up to its astonishing conclusion.

The Hollow Man is just trying to survive in an uncertain climate where terrorism is changing the rules of how we live.
