In the pages of this latest collection of downright delicate, often enchanting and occasionally distressing stories from the pen of award-winning Peter Crowther you will encounter: two boys who discover an elaborate trap to capture fairies; a young musician haunted by the song 'Moonlight In Vermont'; a small-time crook about to fall under the spell of London while, at the same time, rediscovering his wife; a family who happen across a store with a back door that takes you back to your favorite past; a Runyon-esque gambler with the strangest set of dice you ever saw; a couple jaded with their life together who are re-visited by their collective histories; an unusual visitor who rolls in one fall day under cover of a mighty thick fog just to touch base with someone he maybe once knew; a dying man who learns that most important of all lessons: his life has been more worthwhile than he realized; and a carnival come to visit the small turn-of-the-century Texas town of Gault, there to make a big impression on two young women on the cusp of…well, on the cusp of so many things.
