This 100,000-word collection of stories - supernatural and crime - essays and interviews brings together work from the two out of print hardback collections Shadows At Midnight and Echoes Of Darkness, as well as other stories published, and unpublished, over recent years. With the companion volume Selling Dark Miracles, this is the complete Maynard-Sims story to 2000, and features work never before published in USA. This is Stoker recommended, Honourable Mentioned, work from two first class writers of style and quality.


"For twenty-five years, Maynard & Sims have been visiting shadows. To the delight and appreciation of readers, they bring back souvenirs. Like gentleman peddlers selling dark miracles, this long-time duet crafts fiction that reads like the secret geography of nightmare. With the subtle, undeniable persuasiveness of cold air slipping beneath the door, their supernatural stories display a subversive ability to stealthily chip away at those flimsy walls of logic and rationalization that the human animal uses to form illusions of control and safety; barriers that Maynard & Sims delight in crossing."
- William P Simmons
