I was asked to review this from Facebook Good housekeeping Reading Room that I am a member of.
This is a varied collection of short stories and to be enjoyed
a bit at a time. I devoured these in the garden one very hot Sunday with a jug
of Pimms. I enjoyed each different short story with a different genre which
ranged from sci fi, suspense and a whole lot more.
To go from successful novel writing to short stories is a
feat in itself. There is a great deal of predictable stories out there and this
for me was a joy and will encourage me to read more short stories in the
future.
The title of the book – the pier falls for me was a very
powerful story it leaves nothing to the imagination and the author has captured
the event so well – I will not spoil this for readers out there.
The author writes his characters well with real life situations-
he packs quite a punch with these stories.
A well recommended collection.
