There is another world that exists. A world between the last light of day, and the first glimmer of dawn. Where an alternate reality dwells at the far reaches of our minds. Two young men at a Seaside boardwalk try their luck at a game of chance and win more than they bargain for. A man returns home to bury his father and close the house. And finds a childhood treasure long forgotten. A young boy, disappointed in everyone and everything longs to find a hero. Can an old man he meets be the one? Married and in love, they would give each other anything. But would they give up everything? You will meet these and many others in Richard McCrohan's first short story collection, Just Before Dark. A collection of 24 short stories designed to be read...just before dark.
