23 “disturbing” tales that I have been dipping into to relieve the actual horror of an abysmal history book. This type of tale is generally not my style of story, but I have to admit I have enjoyed the collection, especially the ones that had Brisbane as the location.

Kangaroo Point, has a man standing ready to jump off the cliff, was one that had me thinking.

Cathedral Man and the Rare Twelve Inch made me perish the thought of taking on a homeless man for one of his few worldly possessions. Was that meant to be Ziggy? Maybe not as Ziggy was in Toowong if I recall.

A fun read for me and recommended to those that like their short stories with a twist.
