One man seeks desperately to understand what lies beyond, by searching for a particular face - while another returns to fight crime in his old city. Someone at the end of their tether contemplates the many ways in which to end it all, even as someone else defies all the laws of nature to come back from the grave. And as a deadly disease threatens to wipe out the population, four legendary figures meet for a final drink in a pub at the end of the world... It's a subject not many of us want to talk about, but will all have to face at some point, and the characters in this very special collection do so in various ways: whether be as a person, a choice, or even as revenge. So join award-winning and bestselling author Paul Kane (Monsters, Sherlock Holmes and the Servants of Hell) as he takes a look at Death from every angle. Complete with the script for the play version of 'One for the Road', an introduction from the author of The Beauty of Murder and Jonathan Dark or The Evidence of Ghosts, A.K. Benedict. 'Paul Kane is a first-rate storyteller, never failing to marry his insights into the world and its anguish with the pleasures of phrases eloquently turned.' (Clive Barker - Bestselling author of The Hellbound Heart, Abarat, Mr B. Gone & The Scarlet Gospels)
