Description
From the author of ‘Corner House’ and ‘Unlucky Numbers’, a complete collection containing twelve tales of suspense and terror, each one based on a month of the year. Whether you read them in sequence or are drawn to particular months, you’ll never look at a calendar the same way again.

SEPTEMBER: ‘MOG’ – Emily Davis was only doing what most parents did on the first day of school: posting a picture on social media of the children in their new uniforms. The problem is, you can never be sure who is watching, and what they want to share with you . . .
DECEMBER: ‘The Last Present’ – It’s Christmas lunch at the Seymour house, and Declan is meeting Holly’s parents for the first time. They’re worlds apart in terms of wealth and class, and Dec is right to be a little nervous. But not in the ways he imagined . . .
