The excesses of a business man whose power comes from the ritualised abuse of his doppelganger; cannibalism and angelic visitations during the siege of Leningrad; Dracula prowling through Warhol's Factory pursued by Travis Bickle; a man who 'vaccinates' his rich clients against the perils of kidnapping little knowing that he is a middle-man for extra-terrestrials : four stories of the fantastic that throw a new light on our world and our lives. Four varied visions unified by the skill of four of the UK's most internationally successful and critically acclaimed authors.
