Description
In 1981, Gaffney was terrorised by the Rainy Day Abductor.
Local girls went missing.
And two boys made a terrifying discovery.
Now one of them has come home, to try and lay the past to rest.
Originally published as a limited edition chapbook (which sold out four months prior to publication) by the acclaimed independent Spectral Press in 2012, this edition includes an exclusive afterword where West explains the origin of the story.
What others had to say about "What Gets Left Behind"...
"Very strong writing and with a nice evocation of time and place."
- Gary McMahon, author of "The Concrete Grove" trilogy
"Mark West has a knack for making the bonds that bind friends and family tangible and very
real."
- Ian Whates, author of "City Of Dreams & Nightmare" and "The Noise Within"
"If you love the terror of good horror then there's plenty for you in this slow-burner."
- Sue Moorcroft, author of "All That Mullarkey" and "The Wedding Proposal"
"Mark West's writing has a heart and soul that many writers would kill for."
- Jim McLeod, at Ginger Nuts Of Horror
"[The] story is universal in appeal and, the specific peculiarities of the East Midlands setting notwithstanding, will strike a resonant chord in nearly everyone. [A] vivid and welcome addition to the Spectral chapbook line-up."
- Walt Hicks, at Hellbound Times
"What Gets Left Behind is a spine-tingling tale that will play on your mind for some time after you've put it down."
- Adam Millard, at This Is Horror
"What Gets Left Behind's core is as much emotional as horrific; although the horror, when it comes, is gripping and effective."
- James Everington, at Scattershot Writing
"What Gets Left Behind is a sad and spooky tale about the loss of a childhood friend and the haunting, both metaphorical and literal, of the survivor."
- Marc Nocerino, at She Never Slept
"Full of atmosphere and aching with a sense of nostalgia and missed opportunities, What Gets Left Behind is a chilling and moving story of regret."
Paul D. Brazill, at "You Would Say That, Wouldn't You?"
