A Clearing: and 6 more Spooky Tales

By Gavin Boyter

The second in seven short story samplers, this book carries its readers to wintry forests, to caves in the depths of the Carpathian mountains, and into an Edinburgh bookshop where even the texts themselves seem haunted. All of these strange, supernatural excursions are made with one purpose: to chill, thrill and perplex the reader.

In this book:

The White Widow: Defying local folk tales, a postman walks a remote Assynt footpath to deliver a 120-year old letter.
Eyes in the Dark: A pompous travel writer meets his match and his salvation in a cave in Romania.
The Sanctified Shard: An academic investigating an ancient stained glass window, uncovers clues to a forgotten murder.
... and four more tales.

"Gavin Boyter's fiction brings the reader into another place and time. It is a rare writer who can make a situation far away seem real and relatable and Gavin's story does just this." - Lisa C. Taylor, WORDPEACE Fiction Editor
