WIRED
______________________________
Wired, the new collection from Julie Morrigan, contains two short stories, 'Barbed Wire' and 'Razor Wire'.
'Barbed Wire': How far would you go to protect your family? Pushed to the brink, Jimmy Mitchell does what he feels is necessary; then, when he finally dares to believe it’s all over, the police knock on his door. Have Jimmy’s past misdeeds caught up with him?
'Razor Wire': As Jemma struggles to change her image from thieving tomboy to elegant sophisticate, she is driven to do desperate things to feed her new obsession. What we covet can make us reckless; but is it really worth dying for?
Wired includes scenes of violence, brutality and human frailty. It’s likely to appeal to fans of previous collections Gone Bad and Show No Mercy.

Praise for Wired
'Morrigan returns to what she does best, exposing the darker side of the human condition in two complementary tales: "Barbed Wire" and "Razor Wire", both largely told in flashback ... Depth of characterisation lends both these morbid tales a credibility that renders them thoroughly believable and leads the reader to consider what they might have done in similar circumstances. This slim volume is an excellent introduction to Julie Morrigan's work.'
