Description
A superb collection of a half—dozen intriguing short stories from one of Canada's best new writers, who has deservedly drawn favourable comparisons with Stephen King.
A truly captivating offering and an absolute joy to read. Cliff Jackman first captured international attention with the 2010 release of his first book, Deeper, a critically acclaimed collection of intriguing short stories that had critics favourably comparing him to Stephen King. Jackman followed this success with the release of his widely praised debut novel, The Black Box, in 2012 and has now returned to the world of short stories in 2013 with what is perhaps his finest work to date: Jackman's Cliff.
