About this ebook:
The Gift ShopUntil that fateful moment when the stranger appeared at her counter at the airport gift shop and slipped some-thing into one of the toy banks, Jean Cunliffe's young life was remarkably uneventful.That same stranger was later found stabbed to death in a nearby phone booth, and Jean was taken for the wildest, most chilling ride of her life --a roller coaster nightmare of a ride with Death as the conductor.Lemon In A BasketEverything and everyone is so normal. And then slowly, relentlessly, the evil and the violence begin to take over. To all appearances the wealthy and talented Tylers are a fulfilled, happy family. No one would have guessed the streak of unsuspected madness that lay hidden deep in one of them. Then one day a young prince from the Middle East arrives, seeking medical aid and sanctuary among the Tylers -- and the evil uncoils. Like a growing thing an atmosphere of horror begins to wind itself around the family until it finally explodes in an act of violence that threatens not only the Tylers but the destiny of a whole country.The Balloon ManThis harrowing story of an innocent young woman who falls victim to the savage consequences of her husband's "bad trip" on LSD, she reveals herself directly in touch with the dark forces that so deeply disturb contemporary society.
