An inexplicable pregnancy with violent side-effects. Film critics are targeted by a serial killer. A woman gives up her old life to join a sinister cult in Croydon. A fashion blogger finds herself trapped in Paris when the City of Light is overrun by zombies. Five short tales of the unexpected from the author of horror novels Suckers, Stiff Lips and The Ex, described by Salman Rushdie as "a superb satirist".</p><p>DIRTY MARTINI a party girl accidentally summons a demon. I wrote this for submission to an anthology called Respectable Horror (Fox Spirit books; edited by K.A. Laity), but didnt finish it in time.</p><p>BORN AGAIN: originally published in Granta in 1993, to tie in with my inclusion that same year in Grantas list of Best Young British Novelists. It formed the basis for my novel THE COMING THING (2017), which took me 20 years to finish, by which time the story had gone through so many permutations it was barely recognisable.</p><p>SUNSHINE: originally published in The Time Out Book of London Short Stories in 1993 (Penguin; edited by Maria Lexton). Some events in Sunshine eventually provided part of the backstory for one of the characters in my novel The Coming Thing. This short story has proved unexpectedly popular in Denmark, where it has been adopted as a set text for English language students.</p><p>PARIS WHEN IT SIZZLES: originally published in Zombie Apocalypse: Fightback in 2012 (Robinson; edited by Stephen Jones). A British fashion blogger is trapped in Paris when the city is overrun by zombies. This was great fun to write; part of my research involved climbing to the top of Notre-Dame cathedral. As the zombies advance, so the city shrinks; its essentially the history of Paris in reverse.</p><p>THE CAT AT THE CORNER OF YOUR EYE: Jennifers cat was dead, mown down in his prime by a careless driver. So why does she keep catching glimpses of him? Has he come back to haunt her?</p><p>THE PSYCHO MURDERS: a roman clef inspired by the 1973 film THEATRE OF BLOOD and replacing theatre critics murdered in ways described in the plays of Shakespeare with film critics murdered in ways depicted in the films of Alfred Hitchcock. Initially posted on Twitter in 2009, in 50 increments of approximately 140 characters. One of these days I shall write this story up into a proper novella. In the meantime, enjoy the tweet version.</p>...2002006Amuse-Bouches2020https://www.gandhi.com.mx/amuse-bouches-1/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1259220/dbce135c-c6cb-4acc-997a-6fa7eeb2b7cc.jpg?v=638337727951500000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20169781311568199_W3siaWQiOiIzN2ZlM2EwNi03MDgxLTRkYWMtOTJhMi00NmEyNTVjOTMwMmEiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjIwLCJkaXNjb3VudCI6MCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjoyMCwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6IklwcCIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMDUtMTdUMDY6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9781311568199_<p>A demon with a weakness for Dry Martinis.
