Book excerpt: Bad things happen in the dark... It's been a long night at Hap's Truck Stop & Roadside Diner. Young waitress Norma is counting the minutes until the end of another double shift, while her elderly boss Jean is busy baking the perfect apple pie. But all hell is about to break loose. A horribly injured stranger staggers into the diner. Believing he's the victim of a road accident, Norma and Jean rush to his aid. But miles from the nearest town and with the phone lines mysteriously down, their chances of saving him are looking slim. Then a second stranger appears, and suddenly it's clear that Norma and Jean aren't just fighting to save the dying man's life. They're fighting to save their own... After Midnight is a nerve-shredding short story from Malcolm Richards that will have you checking under the bed.
