    Nineteen stories: nineteen diverse characters who will share their closest secrets with you. The artist haunted by a mysterious Chinese boy who never speaks; the girl whose murdered sister whispers in her head; the geneticist trapped in the body of a sow; the old man baffled by a peripatetic building. This is a unique collection - sometimes funny, sometimes eerie, but always surprising. Robert Dodds has been published by Andersen Press (Random House), Polygon, and A&C Black (Bloomsbury). His short stories have been anthologised by HarperCollins, and broadcast on BBC Radio Four. This is his second collection.

    'Not a whodunnit, but a who'll do it!' 'Lucky Jim' meets 'The Beach': a pacy comic novel with a sting in the tail. This is the journal of Martin Mallard: middle-aged, divorced and uptight, but determined to put a little adventure into his life. He's signed up with Target Holidays for a group tour of Pootapuri, an obscure island in the Bay of Bengal. The ill-assorted group turns into a hornets' nest, and, worse, it gradually dawns on him that someone has got it in for him. Someone homicidal... Within his journal's pages lie the clues to his eventual murder. It's been so generous of the murderer to share the journal with us - and belatedly to fulfil Martin's own literary ambitions.
