    'This is the fourth anthology of short stories and flash fiction from the Blackwood Writers Group (South Australia).

    'You will see stories that examine how the strings that hold a marriage together are strained in Andrew Loves His Wife, a scientist manages to elevate his discovery above what he’d expected in High Note, a new recruit in a near-Orwellian society is assigned to the effort in War Footing, and a young girl finds that she and her pet kitten share a very close bond that will make them stand-out crime investigators in Sooty. A super-hero without a cause stumbles onto a global plot while baby-sitting her nephew, and a space colonist returning to his home planet finds himself in a dilemma as he tries to hide his advanced technology from the inhabitants who have gone backward during his absence.' 

    We conclude with a tribute to author, publisher and founder Robert N Stephenson, featuring stories that consider death and dying, taking us from the borders of hell to the gates of heaven. (Publication summary)
