These tales take readers on a head spinning journey through the inner workings of a cruel colonial school, all the way to a creepy contemporary vacation rental, never losing sight of the selfish, unscrupulous, and inescapable aspects of human behaviour. This is a collection that will keep you turning pages, but that will also make you wonder: Are the pages turning you?Allegra Hyde, author of The Last CatastropheIn this collaborative fiction project, four writers navigate the protean concept of the bargain in novella-length stories. A biographer surveying the career of a haunted literary figure, a lovelorn journalist entering into a diabolic covenant, a tourist attempting to stay sober through her holiday travels, and a doctor's complicity in a colonial scandal: These horror-inflected offerings of existential dread, tainted pasts, and uncertain futures serve as an unbalancing reminder that there is always a high price to pay for the corruption of the soul.","brand":"Invisible Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51020396429655,"sku":"9781778430541","price":12.34,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781778430541.jpg?v=1750783310","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/dead-writers-9781778430541","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
