      Glimpse into the Dark Welcome, dear reader, to a collection where paradise and dread intertwine. Within these pages lie eight tales, each a portal to a world where the sun casts an unsettling glow. We journey from the bustling streets of Thailand to the smokey grime of London, encountering seemingly ordinary lives that take a sinister turn. Here, friendships sour, desires turn deadly, and the line between reality and delusion blurs. Prepare to be captivated by characters both familiar and unsettling. A meeting with a friend in a greasy spoon has a deadly shock. A lonely expat grapples with isolation while childhood bonds are tested in the face of darkness. The allure of Thailand's underbelly unfolds in "Thailand's Finest," while a seemingly innocent question in "Why Were You There?" unravels a web of secrets. Unreliable narrators cast doubt on everything you perceive in "My View," and a seemingly harmless trinket unleashes a chilling truth in "Got It." The power of perception takes centre stage in "Reflection," and a seemingly mundane object becomes a harbinger of horror in "Red Car." As you delve deeper, be warned: the shadows hold secrets, and the twists will leave you breathless. So, if you dare, turn the page and step into a world where the familiar becomes unsettling, and the happily ever after takes a chilling detour.
