A shadow falls. A shape in the window.
A sound at the door. The dead have risen.
This book collects ten short stories of
horror, tragedy and the things in between
from the terrifying imagination of
award-winning fictionist Yvette Tan.
Are you ready to wake the dead?
"Tan is a consummate storyteller; her voice, rich and confident, reassures us for a moment that all is well, before slowly revealing exquisite horrors. Every story in this collection is worth your while, evoking flavors of the Filipino city and countryside, serving to blur the twilit gap between the real and the unseen."
