    About this ebook

    Serial killers, psychopaths, brutality and violence, horror and terror, cunning, wit, beauty and charm—what am I describing? Deadly women, of course. Included in this series is Pillow Talk, nominated for Spinetingler's Best Short Story on the Web award. Pick your Poison: 

    Pillow Talk: If sexy Henrietta asks you if you are afraid of the dark, it's already too late. 

    Mantra: 
    One, two, three…
 
    Nails and teeth go beneath.
 
    Hair and gums, unbecomes. 
    Legs and fingers, let them linger.
 
    Heads and tails flip for sells.
 

    What does this mean? Ask Rhiannon, she'll be happy to show you. 

    Dead Sunset Red: At Faraday Psychiatric Hospital, Cecilia stares at herself in the bathroom mirror. She knows today is the anniversary of something very dreadful she has done, but she can't remember what or why. When she applies her favorite lip gloss, Dead Sunset Red, it triggers a floodgate of horrific memories beyond comprehension.

      Pillow Talk

      Henrietta wrapped her arms about her pillow. I’m still awake, Charlie. I can never sleep anymore. Charlie’s body spooned hers. His arm wrapped around her waist, hand pressed against the silky hollow of her stomach. Charlie, are you listening?

      Silence.

      Sleep. That’s all you do anymore. It’s not fair. It’s never been fair. Henrietta felt sweat drip down her neck, the base of her spine. She scrunched back the sheets and adjusted her pillow. The mattress was a full size. It was her bed. He had his own room, but he never wanted to sleep there. Afraid of the dark aren’t you, Charlie? What did you do before you moved in with me, huh? Sleep with dolls?

      Charlie hadn’t been afraid of the dark until he met her. He had told
