Wellsbourne's a town like no other, an ordinary English seaside town where extraordinary things happen, a place of magic, mystery and madness. Here you'll meet the woman stalked by drones and her own past, the politician who discovers the dark secret of the Green Man, the corpse collector with another self, the girl who menstruates yellow paint and the woman with the red, red hands. You'll discover a garden that can disappear, boxes of books haunted by a dead writer and a 3D printer that can bring the dead back to life, though in a somewhat altered state. Wellsbourne welcomes careful drivers, but doesn't necessarily let them leave again... Stories included in this collection: The Wakeman Recreation Ground What I Found in the Shed The Follow Up From Rojava with Love Mask of the Silvatici Little Match-Stick Girl The Coroner's Collector (A Good Body Washed up on the Beach) The Beast in the Palace Stealer of Faces Our Lady of the Red Hands Oldstone Gardens The Apotheosis of Jenny Swallow A Bloody Mary, a Tomato Juice and a Tin of Yellow Paint Last Stop: Wellsbourne You Have Reached Your Destination
