A hilarious tale of justice done, in the most bizarre way!   (Goodreads)  >>>   Joan Aiken is know mainly for her books for young adults. Many don't even know that she has written for adults as well. This collection of short stories, along with a few others such as 'A Bundle of Nerves', 'A Fit of Shivers', etc. bring out the best in her. Her choice of words and turns of phrase evoke an atmosphere both eerie and suspenseful. Virtually every story is a gem, a fine tribute to the art of the short story.      * Short Stories * Teen Reading *
