The Traveller and Other Stories by Stuart Neville
A darkly glittering collection of Northern Irish noir by Stuart Neville, Los Angeles Times Book Prizewinning authorThe book is divided into two parts: New Monsters, which contains seven chilling stand-alone tales that traverse and blend the genres of crime fiction, horror, and speculative fiction; and Old Friends, which contains five short pieces that reveal the origins or hidden backstories of Neville fan-favorite characters like Albert Ryan, Roberta Garrick, and of course Gerry Fegan. It also contains the long-awaited novella The Traveller, the companion piece to The Ghosts of Belfast and Collusion, which answers the question of what happened to Jack Lennon and his daughter, Ellen, after they fled Belfast seven years ago. The thirteen stories in this collection, which includes never-before-published pieces, span the decade since the publication of the now-classic The Ghosts of Belfast, and in his revelatory personal introduction Neville describes how each story fit into his career as a writer. Complete with a foreword from Irish crime fiction legend John Connolly, this volume is the perfect indulgence for fans of ghost stories and noir, and is a must-have for devotees of Neville's prizewinning Belfast Cycle novels.
Stuart Neville, dubbed the king of Belfast noir by The Guardian, has written nine novels, winning the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and been nominated for the Edgar, Macavity, Dilys, Barry, and Anthony Awards, as well as the CWA Steel Dagger. He lives in the Belfast area.
