The Twelve Even Stranger Days of Christmas by Syd Moore

From the twice CWA Dagger shortlisted author ofThe Twelve Strange Days of Christmascometwelvethirteen stories to transport you to the macabre world of inexplicable phenomena.

‘A treat for anyone looking for an antidote to the usual saccharine Christmas fayre..inventive and original and very entertaining.’

-- NB magazine

‘A quick escape from the stresses of Christmas day!’

-- Crime Review

‘Starting off strongly with [Moore’s] own irresistible take on the Seven Dwarfs… all featuring some element of the macabre or paranormal and infused with a robust sense of humour… they definitely suit the long, shadowy winter evenings, and it’s a fun collection if you like to get a little spooked but not entirely grossed-out.’ 

-- Herald

‘An indulgence for dark winter nights… transformed folk tales, folk horror… classic ghost stories, tales of supernatural revenge… a gorgeous collection.’ 

-- Blue Book Balloon blog

 

Praise for The Twelve Strange Days of Christmas:
