SHOW NO MERCY
______________________________
A Falklands War veteran takes the law into his own hands.
A young man finds guidance in neon signs that only he can see.
An escort pays the price when she fails to make her client’s dreams come true.
Show No Mercy is a collection of dark, adult tales exploring Britain’s seedy underbelly. Thieves, whores, murderers, gangsters and thugs all lurk within the pages, their dirty deeds on display, their grubby secrets revealed. There’s even a pair of Christmas-themed tales, proving that it is always the season to be bad.
Come and peek under Britannia’s skirt and see what it is she tries to hide from the world: it’s not all royal weddings and afternoon tea, there are dark, dangerous, dirty places whose denizens show no mercy to those who cross their paths.
