More About This Book
Within a series of nine short stories, McDowell casts a stark, exam-room light on situations that test the extremes of human drama. These stories examine the range of what drives a person to the limit whether it be, stress, tragedy, or predilection. Reminiscent of Poe, McDowell remains true to his flawed characters as they survive the chaos in which they find themselves. Most enjoyable.

As a reader, these short stories took me deep into the internal complexities of our humanity, when the ‘wild card’ of chaos is played. Each story has been crafted with literary tension, designed to take the reader beyond the end of the story. Dr Markus McDowell will have succeeded, if like me, you find yourself lingering over the story, having been evoked to ponder, reflect and question.
