Deal : Ghosts

Alec Reid’s ghosts of the twenty-first century seldom lurk in old houses or waft across chilly moors. His dark tales may breathe alongside the supernatural, but they take place in broad daylight, in our daily lives. Their themes include dead warriors resurrected via Bluetooth, Rumpelstiltskin in the suburbs, an algorithmic fear of ghosts and the shattered dreams of immortality. The world they describe is the one you inhabit, but you would live in terror were you to recognise it for what it is. Life would, literally, not be the same. FREE eBook From January 28 - 31, 2021
