Beware Black Tears – Tales of Horror, Intrigue and Mystery from the Edwardian Age 

Remember, as you look into a mirror one day and see a shadow move in the corner of the room, to ask yourself whether you believe that you are really alone, or whether there is someone or something trying to attract your attention. Only one little shift in dimension and you could be standing behind the mirror, now left handed instead of right, your hair parted the other way and the buttons on your shirt stitched uncomfortably on the wrong side. A collection of stories, tells how life at the beginning of the twentieth century, became one adventure after another for James Brodin, his wife and their closest friends – a world changing fast as new inventions made everyday life something of a mystery and a challenge. They also warn that however content you may be with your lot, fate will always show its hand to upset or perhaps help re-map your expectations. Enter the world of dreams; for there, everything is real.
