An anthology of eight dark and disturbing tales. The stories are set in Thailand or England, all with a twist to keep you guessing.
Siamese Feast: A book of tales to leave you wondering to the last sentence.
Amanda and Rose embark on a journey to visit a mysterious factory that Amanda's father is considering buying. Unbeknownst to them, the taxi driver refuses to approach the building, and they are guided inside by a silver-coloured cat. As they explore, they encounter tiny hungry kittens and a hunch-backed man with a shrine to felines. The looming question remains: What does he want?
Before Yesterday: Jimmy, now eighteen, is eager to step into adulthood, but his overprotective mother restricts him. Determined to solve a personal puzzle, Jimmy sets out on a journey to find answers and assert his independence.
Mirror, Mirror: Jen desires a Western-shaped nose instead of her Thai one, leading her to pursue a nose job. As she transforms, unforeseen complications arise, putting her determination to the test.
Mother's Day, Father's Day, Why Not Brother's Day?: In this family tale, two brothers with disparate lives attempt to celebrate a special day. One brother, blessed with abundance, devises a plan to help his struggling sibling, who faces challenges, including the desire for offspring.
I Forgot!: During a routine visit to the psychiatrist, Pauline's memory is unexpectedly nudged. As she grapples with recollections she had buried, she discovers unsettling truths that challenge her mental well-being.
Bunkered: A man wakes up in a room that feels unfamiliar, triggering a series of questions about his changed life. Struggling to remember his family, job, and colleagues, he embarks on a journey to unravel the mystery of his altered reality.
Thai Murder: Deep in the heart of Bangkok, Nid plots revenge against an Englishman, fueled by years of waiting and deep-seated hatred. Her target must possess specific characteristics that have fueled her desire for vengeance.
Glorious Food: Keng, while studying Fine Food in Europe, developed an intense loathing for English men after a failed dalliance with a Londoner. As she explores the roots of her animosity, the story unveils the reasons behind her burning disdain for the Brits.
Tales with twists in the tail.
