From Matt Shaw ( Sick B*stards) comes a new short story dealing with grief, loss, and redemption. A short story filled with twists and turns, ready to make you feel a wide range of emotion.

Before you go "behind closed doors" with Matt Shaw's anthology - Shaw invites you into the exclusive penthouse and private life of Duncan Whitfield; a man who has lost nearly everything with only his home left to be taken. Desperate to keep some dignity and claw his way back to the top of society's elite, Whitfield comes up with a plan to raise the necessary funds to clear his mounting debt. But is it too late for him?

It was supposed to be a pleasant evening out; a break from the stress of the hard-working week they had both endured. A bite to eat in one of their favorite restaurants and then, if there was time, a movie at the cinema opposite. It had been - her husband - Sam's choice; an impromptu date. Yet his day had been one cock-up after another. Meetings had gone on longer than they should have, his phone had run out of battery, and every single traffic light seemed to be working against him.

Alex Cole will do anything for money. Murder? Check. Assault? Check. Infanticide? Check. Sexual favors? Double-check. But after getting himself roped into something called Kuman Thong - including its roasted human fetuses - Cole is left fighting unfathomable phenomena beyond his comprehension and rather unexpectedly trying save the world. All for a lousy paycheck.

It was supposed to be a nice family vacation. Their first time out camping. Quality time with the family - more about communicating with each other as opposed to whatever electronic devices got them online. But from the moment they got lost and gave up looking for the camp site, opting to stay in a pretty-looking field deep in the country, things start to go from bad to worse, and soon they find themselves running for their lives.
