Deadly Short Stories
The short story collection "Gone" spins three haunting tales that will plunge you into the darkness beneath even the most respectable veneers.
In "The Settlement," a bank manager's pilfering of a wealthy countess's fortune drags him into nightmarish consequences after her demise.
The twisted "The Necklace" follows a deadly love triangle where deft psychological insight reveals how passion and betrayal ultimately converge in tragedy.
And in "The Pope‹s Banker," speculation on the real-life mysterious death of Roberto Calvi, the Vatican banker found hanging from Blackfriars Bridge in 1982, explores the unholy nexus of faith, finance, and criminal enterprises.
With captivating narratives that remind you some mysteries may never be solved, but their power to disturb remains, "Gone" is a riveting plunge into the abyss where desire, desperation, and the lust for power reside.
