Author Description

The Complete Edition of Justin Bog's First Collection of Dark Psychological Suspense Tales. An award-winning collection, Sandcastle and Other Stories reveals twisted secrets that are mined like plutonium. These twelve literary tales are nothing short of an adventure through a roiling sea of emotion. With authenticity and eloquence, author Justin Bog holds a provocative and compelling mirror on the human condition. "The stories are those of everyday people who might live next door or in the walk-up across the street... A man with a personal crisis takes a singles cruise - a woman leaves her toddler girl at the beach while having a romantic tryst - a B-list actor's character is killed off - a girl is sucked below the sand into an underwater chamber... an old gardener who has dark secrets interacts with the bosses daughter in a most unforeseen way. The only commonality in these tight, little stories is they are unexpected. Having this book is like having a string of black pearls - each one slightly different, but each a perfect, dark, little gem... Bog paints pictures with words as Titian did with oil paints - startlingly detailed with deep perspective and rich complexity." --Rosi Hollenbeck, San Francisco Book Review
