These Things That Walk Behind Me by David Surface
So strange stories, yes, and dark, too. Stories with fine prose and sympathetically drawn characters give them an emotional heft and resonance not always found in this fiction stripe. Stories that follow you. Stories that cannot be easily forgotten because they haunt you. In These Things That Walk Behind Me, David Surface crafts haunting stories where the familiar succumbs to the strange. Each tale builds an eerie sense of wrongness, where something unsettling stirs beneath the surface, growing more intense with every page.
“A first-rate selection of unnerving and indelible stories.” – Kirkus Reviews
“This is one of the best collections I have read in many years—possibly ever.” – Stephen Volk, author of Ghostwatch
