Timeslips. Doomsday scenarios. Killer butterflies. C. J. Tudor's novels are widely acclaimed for their dark, twisty suspense plots, but with A Sliver of Darkness, she pulls us even further into her dizzying imagination.
In Final Course, the world has descended into darkness, but a group of old friends make time for one last dinner party. In Runaway Blues, thwarted love, revenge, and something very nasty stowed in a hat box converge. In Gloria, a strange girl at a service station endears herself to a cold-hearted killer, but can a leopard really change its spots? And in I'm Not Ted, a case of mistaken identity has unforeseen, fatal consequences.
As soon as I saw this book on our New shelf I had to grab it, I've read all of her other books and was really looking forward to reading this book of short stories. This book did not disappoint. I loved the creativity brought with each story, along with an introduction before each explaining how the author came up with the idea. I cannot pinpoint a favorite story, I loved them all! If you've read any of her other books, or just like to read short creepy stories, I would highly recommend this book.
