Aged between 18 and 50, these characters find themselves entangled in situations that lead to tragedy, dishonesty, and betrayal. In one story, an older man takes advantage of his publishing manager friend’s goodwill and sells a business sponsored by the manager behind his back for his own profit. In another story, an unpopular man in a company becomes a ‘hero’ after being attacked on a staff fishing trip on the Zambezi River, leading to his promotion and a change in attitude towards those who invited him on the trip. Other stories follow the desires of ordinary people, such as a man who searches for a married woman he met years ago in Malawi, a successful business owner who starts doing good things for others before taking a wrong turn, and an 18-year-old schoolboy who falls for his friend’s girlfriend. Each story takes you on a journey of human nature and the consequences of our actions. Tragedy, dishonesty, and back-stabbing await in this compelling collection set against the backdrop of South and Central Africa.

Book Synopsis Homely in the Cradle and Other Stories by : A.R. Morlan

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Think of this collection as a literary grab-bag...chances are there's at least one story you'll like/love/enjoy, others which will amuse you, still others which might disturb, and perhaps one or so which you probably won't like. While the bulk of my fictional output over the years has been roughly divided between horror/dark fantasy, science fiction and erotica (of various types), a few pieces have either slipped through the genre cracks, or simply didn't make it into my other collections, either due to content, length, or availability at the time I was assembling those other collections. I've done a couple of western stories, and some undefined things which cover multiple genres, and some poetry which didn't fit in my other collections either -- there's even a short non-fiction piece about my beloved, late cat Bruiser (the same cat featured in my novel The Amulet), as well as a chapter from an outlined but never written Ewerton novel." -- A.R. Morlan, from the Introduction

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1898, The Strand Magazine, one of the most influential publications of the Victorian fin de siècle, deemed best-selling author and editor L.T. Meade a literary “celebrity” and “one of the most industrious writers of modern fiction.” Beginning in 1893 and continuing into the first decade of the twentieth century, Meade’s medical mysteries and thrilling tales of dangerous criminal women appeared in The Strand. There they competed successfully not only with Arthur Conan Doyle’s Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, but also with the works of the most popular writers of the day. The Sorceress of the Strand is one of Meade’s most compelling mysteries, and the first to feature the seductive criminal genius Madame Sara. The Sorceress of the Strand is accompanied in this edition by three other popular stories featuring powerful female criminal protagonists, from gang leaders to spies and terrorists. The historical appendices expand on the stories’ themes of criminality, gender, and political activism. Twenty-eight of the original periodical illustrations are included.
