Inhaltsangabe

Nine tales of the strange and uncomfortable. Nine stories marked by the darkness of perversity. Unusual tasks and unusual people; decisions, divisions, and nightmarish landscapes. The Fifth Passenger and Other Perversities contains a selection of never-before-published stories from the twisted depths of the mind of Scott R.S. Raphael, the author of A Little Slice and Spruce Road.
