In 'Amiante' an offhand decision made in a man's student days has life-changing repercussions in later years. 'Malpeque Road' is the story of how girls can disappear, leaving only small hauntings behind. 'Waiting for Valentina' is a historical Gothic tale, while 'Tales from the Shed' bring us right into the heart of the Covid lockdown.
Lost Feathers explores perplexing elements of the natural world and the effects of climate change, themes close to the author's heart.
