In a world where desire hides the deepest secrets and survival demands more than human will, where the truth is darker than you can imagine, they are drawn together by forces beyond their understanding, bound by the hunger that unites them, haunted by choices they cannot escape. And they’re coming for you.

predatory

adjective: habitually hunting and killing other animals or humans.

animals, ai, aliens, men, even women, can turn predatory – if provoked.

predatory: twenty-two stories with a deadly sting in their tail that explore the extremities of human experience from suspense, fright and intrigue to torrid passion, and visceral horror.

‘The suspense and aura of menace built slowly to sheer terror at the ending.  Superb storytelling, dreamy erotic imagery,’ reader, USA.

‘A 21st century Hansel and Gretel. A tour deforce of descriptive writing. Utterly relentless.’ ‘Woo! A cross between Sweeney Todd and Silence of the Lambs! Love it!’, reader, UK.

Pivotal Moment: why can't we all live and love in peace and harmony?

Pivotal Moment

She cycled up to me as I waited in the shade. Half her face was cast in shadow, half was bright with the flaming sun. A round, happy face: toffee nose, shiny carbon eyes, a candy twist in her smile. So sweet! My diminutive woman. A string of sweat graced her neck shining on her nut-brown skin like a white halo. She wore an open shirt flecked with navy blue, soft summer shorts, faded canvas shoes. The locals told me she roasted by the sea. A sun child with skin as dark as caramel. Adorable! She sat astride her bicycle, one foot on the pedal, tiptoe on the ground, applied her brake, and watched.

There was an old stone fountain in the square with a crude protruding spout which poured water down the worn rock face into a dark pool. Embedded in the edifice was a warning sign. Refraining from drinking, I splashed ice-cold water over my burnt face and chest, intoxicated by the thrill of its refreshment. She rang her melodic bell. ‘Ring me anytime!’ it chimed. And then I made my wish.

She cycled up to me as I waited by the wishing well. I held her in my arms, and we kissed. That was the moment I fell in love with her. The moment I knew I wanted us to spend the rest of our lives together.
