New Zealand with a Hobbit Botherer
What should you do if your spouse becomes addicted to the Lord of the Rings movies and swoons at the very mention of Orlando Bloom's name? (Thud. Quick, fetch the smelling salts.) How about taking the advice of a strange apparition that reveals itself in a dream? An apparition that looks remarkably like the director of the movies, Peter Jackson, but not quite remarkably enough to prompt legal action. An apparition that recommends touring New Zealand in an effort to prove that its sheep pastures aren't really filled by frolicking Hobbits. Just sheep and the occasional zorbing local. This is the hilarious tale of such a tour, featuring snow capped mountains and turquoise lakes, flightless birds and flying cattle, bungy jumping grannies and the carrot mafia, strange yellow eyes peering up from a road map and hotel receptionists always desperate to know win you are living.

  Silent Screams
Jessica Miller is a young woman with secrets, dark secrets that she feels she can't tell. Referred to a psychiatrist after a failed suicide attempt, she is reluctant to reveal the reasons why. The truth emerges over several sessions and it soon becomes clear that Jessica isn't the only one with secrets. Some of them should have remained buried... Not all monsters are under the bed.

Free Falling - some friendly aliens have discovered the cure for most human diseases, except for one, the one you have... Shadows of the Rose - a lovers' tryst in a ruined abbey, but something is not quite right. What's that, there, hidden in the Shadows of the Rose?
