Shadows of the Soul
Straight lines are for the dead.
Shadows of the Soul is a collection of sharp-edged tales about what happens when people take things one step too far, zig when they should have zagged, or wake up and find the floor isn’t where it used to be. You’ll meet characters who are half in control, half falling apart, and all the way unforgettable. Some slip, some crash, and some crawl through to the other side—or not.
These stories aren’t sentimental. They punch, twist, and grin while the world burns a little at the edges. Think bruised knuckles and blood under your fingernails. If you like your fiction clean, safe, and neatly resolved, keep walking. But if you like things crooked, darkly funny, and a little dangerous, welcome.

Hearts pounding read
Each tale is tightly woven and moves at lightning speed. Mr. Hilton's flash fiction literally made my jaw drop in wonder. His.mastery of this challenging art form is almost surgical in precision. These stories satisfy on every level. Enjoy!
