Looking Good
A Scare at Bedtime Series
Barry Cummins has it all figured out. Or so he thinks.
With his designer clothes, fake abs, and blindingly white veneers courtesy of cut-rate Turkish clinics, Barry believes he's perfection personified. He doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, and spends every waking hour maintaining his appearance. In his mind, he's God's gift to women, never mind that his colleagues can barely tolerate him and his narcissism has left him completely alone.
But Barry's carefully constructed image starts to crumble when he notices his hair is thinning. For a man who has built his entire identity on looking perfect, going bald is a nightmare he can't accept.
Then the email arrives.
Elite Hair Solutions Istanbul promises a miracle, a state-of-the-art hair transplant at an unbelievably low price, five-star accommodation included, and results that will restore his confidence. The reviews are glowing. The facility looks immaculate. It seems too good to be true.
It is.
What Barry doesn't know is that Elite Hair Solutions isn't a hair clinic, it's a front for a criminal organization that harvests and sells human organs on the black market. His rare blood type, his pristine health from years of vanity-driven self-care, and his complete isolation have made him the perfect target.
By the time Barry realizes the truth, it's far too late.
Praise for A Scare at Bedtime Series
Short, sharp shocks that stay with you long after bedtime.
Modern horror with classic cautionary tale sensibilities, these stories don't just scare you, they make you think.
Perfect length for a single sitting that will haunt you for weeks.
