What If

"What if?" An unanswered question. The unexplained, a mystery, a road not taken.




This is a collection of dark fiction injected here and there with glimmers of humour.




The author takes us on a surreal and ghostly journey from Latin America's Day of the Dead, through the coastal towns of Lancashire, a pig farm in Denmark, a high-rise in Mallorca, a haunted vicarage at Christmas and a town centre coffee bar. The voices we hear are variously plaintive, nostalgic, and occasionally vindictive or vengeful: the testimonies and fears of the living and the dead.




Anne Wilson, writes about places she knows, imbuing the natural world and the everyday with disturbing fantasy and the supernatural.




Ghosts with attitude, the unexplained and excerpts from the living.

Some really effective and enjoyable stories, from the spooky to the deeply creepy, and deserving of a wide audience. The characterization of this collection is a particular strength, with every story having a distinct voice through dialogue or monologue.
