Then There Were Three

By Adam Dorey

This book contains three short tales, sure to leave you breathless. Join a small village on their darkest day, awaiting a vicious attack by a massive Fomorian army. The villagers have crossed a fragile line, and the Fomorian king, Balor, has sentenced them to death. Join Jericho, a struggling and desperate father trapped in a futuristic wasteland, as he tries to provide for his family and save his dying son. He will do whatever it takes, even if it means that he must kill. And join Bobby Reins as he races the clock, trying to save an innocent man from the gallows. Though the evidence points to Jim Ford as being a killer, Bobby knows the truth. These three unique stories, though short and sweet, will keep you on the edge of your seat.
