THE SANDMAN: The notorious modern classic about the life and crimes of a lovable serial killer. Black comedy has never been blacker. Wild, wicked and very funny. "I am the Sandman. I am the butcher in soft rubber gloves. I am the acrobat called death. I am the fear in the dark. I am the gift of sleep." Growing up in a small hotel in a shabby seaside town, Mackerel Burton has no idea that he is to grow up to become a slick and ruthless serial killer. A lonely boy, he amuses himself by perfecting his conjuring tricks, but slowly the magic turns to a darker kind, and he finds himself stalking the streets of London in search of random and innocent victims. DANCING WITH MERMAIDS: A mysterious fairy-tale, fragranced with twists of madness and lust. Strange things are afoot in the Dorset fishing town of Rams Horn. Set close to the poisonous swamps at the mouth of the River Sheep, the town has been isolated from its neighbours for centuries.
