Friction: Nine Dark Tales of Suspense – In these darkly suspenseful short stories, classic dread and modern menace mingle in candlelit corners: an unsettling ode to Edgar Allan Poe ’s The Cask of Amontillado, where pride and vengeance still echo behind steel and bone; a bartender forced to craft the perfect martini for the Devil himself, knowing one wrong twist of citrus could cost more than a bad review; and a seemingly devoted wife whose love turns methodical as she plans the final, irreversible solution to her marriage. Wicked, witty, and quietly brutal, these tales invite you to step closer, listen carefully, and discover what awaits on the other side of “just one more page.” Shipping February 14, 2026 4.25"x7" paperback 205 pages 979-8-90271-045-5 $9.99 Signed Free Bookmark For inscribed copies: Please email your order number and inscription request(s) to [email protected].
