A stunning collection of short stories, designed and crafted to keep you entertained late into the night. This fictional series will test your limits and boundaries, as everyday situations develop and transform into something far more sinister than you can imagine.
From the things that live under (or in!) your bed, to your children’s imaginary friends. Can the city survive the likes of Captain Morris? And what is to become of the world when the underground no longer exists? Perhaps the answer is to escape to an alternate reality, but is escape even possible?
Toby takes you into a nightmarish wonderland of horror where things are never what they seem, and the very concept of reality, is nothing more than a murky tub of putrid bathwater.
With a variety of passions and interests, Amber tries to not limit herself to one specific genre. Poetry, art, novellas and short stories categorized as; fiction, experimental, fantasy, horror, surreal, romance, action/adventure, folklore and short stories are just some of the categories under which her work falls.

Amber has her degree with full honors in Human Resource Management and currently lives with her husband in Florida, USA.
With a backlog of ideas and projects, she aims to publish at least five (05) books per year.
"Toby" gave me chills! Amber Drappier is a fantastic story teller and knows how to create imagery in her readers' minds. Right from the beginning of the book, I was sucked into the dark, creepy spaces in my mind. My favorite stories in this collection were "The Pulse", "At the Bus Stop", and "Insanity Diary". Mrs. Drappier has taken monsters from underneath the bed, multiplied them, and then replanted them in the closet, attic and basement of every home with this collection of short stories! I am excited to read more of her work in the future!
