Mortality Tales

By R. A. Kay

A collection of short, unsettling stories about extraordinary things happening to ordinary people. People like Jo, a woman who, on the first day in her new home, makes a discovery that reveals a dark history to the house. Then there is the woman in a deserted middle-eastern village who sees death walk into her life. You will read about a young boy finding something beautiful but losing something. You will meet Jack, a security officer who needs to find out why people in his organisation keep ending up dead. The eponymous Stranger is someone you would never want to meet on a dark night, or at any other time. And as for the good neighbour...
Perhaps it's time for you to find somewhere comfortable and sit down and read the stories. Somewhere nice and warm, with good lighting, and a phone nearby. Just in case.

I have been many things. I have been and done things that I choose to forget. I have now chosen none of these. I choose to write.What I write is often odd. I enjoy writing unsettling stories. Not pure horror, not gore, just stories that linger in the mind. These stories are published under the name R. A. Kay. Under the name Ricky A. Kay I write stories set in and around the place I live – Sheffield, England. These pieces are usually about ordinary people in ordinary circumstances and how they behave in extraordinary situations. Just to confuse things, some of my unsettling work is set in Sheffield. And some of the extraordinary situations can be quite unsettling.So that’s me. I’m starting this adventure later than I’d planned, but I still feel excited about it. Come with me. I hope you will feel the same.
