    Berek Morris

    Berek Morris is a native Texan, born and raised in Austin, Texas. His family consists of many authors who have inspired him to put pen to paper and to become a writer himself. He wrote this horror anthology because he is fascinated with the human mind, the inner and outer thoughts that make us all tick. How two people can experience the same situation and walk away with two different interpretations intrigues him. This is the first book of many.

      York, October 1644 Before I’ve even mustered the courage to knock, the door to the townhouse flings open. I drop my hand. “It is me, John Falmouth,” I say and wince at how loud my voice carries into the night. My greeting falters when I look up and n
