A traveller arrives at a border with a stack of battered cases. From within them, whole worlds will emerge... Trick of the Light (The Bookbinder) presents an eclectic box set of short stories. Dark, spiky and comic, it shifts from shadow play to storytelling, dancing disembodied hands to narratives crackling from a 1970s stereo suitcase. 'A delight from start to end... all tied together with a slow burn reveal into a wickedly brilliant conclusion' (NZ Herald). 'Weaves a bright dark magic' **** (Scotsman). 'Innovative, dark, and delicious' ***** (TheQR.co.uk).
