Synopsis
A serial killer is removing victims' hands in a Venice shackled by winter. A woman at the end of her tether finds a terrible release on holiday in the fens of East Anglia. A man is haunted by graffiti, and finds that his road to discovering the perpetrator leads to death. and worse. A husband trying to comfort his terminally ill wife seeks help in a forbidden zone from his childhood, where blood is the price of perfection. In this spellbinding collection of his best stories from the last ten years, award-winning writer Conrad Williams offers the kind of horrors that move subtly into you, like pain, or love, or regret. They are stories that explore the scarred outposts of desperation and desire, sickness and death, sex and decay. Within these pages you will also find the acclaimed novella Nearly People (nominated for awards by the International Horror Guild and the British Fantasy Society), in which a woman's search for food in a nightmarish city brings her attention from an enigmatic man known as The Dancer, and a host of terrible epiphanies. --Publishers Weekly (starred review) Includes three stories never before seen: Nest of Salt, The Night Before and The Owl.

    Received item exactly as advertised! The CD is brand new and still sealed! I rate the overall quality, condition, value and appearance as excellent! It was packaged (an oversized box) to prevent damage during shipping! Many thanks to seller! A great addition to a Clint Eastwood fan's music library! Excellent seller! Highly recommended!

    A+ in every way. Terrific seller interaction--fast & easy. Great packaging and handling, arriving sealed and in perfect condition as described. I've been waiting for this for a long time. It's very rare and I'm thrilled to finally have it. I highly recommend this seller and thank him VERY much! For anyone who loves this film, it's essential to have as the originally-released music was partially recorded to appeal to general listers; this has the film tracks exactly as they appear onscreen.

    Great ebay seller who has come through for me on multiple occasions. I purchased the R. A. Lafferty volume at a fantastic price. It shipped quickly and arrived in pristine condition, still in the publisher's shrink wrap.
