Consisting of five short stories and one novella, this collection by Nick C. Roberts introduces a range of characters who, for very different reasons, have fallen through society's cracks.
By focusing on these damaged individuals, the author exposes the fear, hurt and uncertainty that lurks at the edges of ordinary lives, and illustrates the eerie darkness that lies within us all.
Amongst others, we meet a London tramp who's suddenly reminded of a long lost love, a down on his luck Australian drifter, and in the title story, four strangers on a London tube train with far more in common than they think.
