Opis

From the moral dilemmas of an ordinary soldier to a man's infatuation with a past love, "Tales for Sale," a collection of fifteen thought-provoking short stories, will touch your deepest emotions.

""No Honor Killing"" tells of a conflicted soldier who thinks hard about what he hears from his colonel: that there is honor in the executions that his men carry out as long as they dress in full uniform. But when the men are asked to kill their own drummer, they must decide whether to follow orders.

In ""Stations"," a man still enthralled by the scent of a past lover must decide whether to take her back when he hears from her for the first time in seven years.

""Possibly Cursed Mirror"" tells the story of a new homeowner who is desperate to give away a mirror that someone left at his home. The previous owner put it in a corner where no one could ever possibly stand directly in front of it. But the mirror has been moved.

Matthew O'Malley delivers a compelling collection that runs the gamut of emotions from funny and sad to scary and light-hearted. Get ready for the unusual!
