A Twisted Journey and Other Short Adventures

A TWISTED JOURNEY




Life is like a roller coaster, filled with twists and turns, ups
and downs. Th e truth of this adage can be found in Robert Andrews's short story collection, A Twisted Journey and Other
Short Adventures. Simple-and sometimes
horrific-events turn characters' lives upside-down, but rather than get off the ride, most
of them hang on and hope for more.




In the title story, "A Twisted Journey," art gallery employee Tammy is
shaken by a mysterious intruder with the knife. Th e seeds of a serious
mood disorder come to the surface and distort her perceptions. Will
the wounds heal and allow her to fi nd love, or will the trauma lead
her down the path into darkness? In part two, stories include magical
feats of strange women, a widow's quest for peace, and a senior unwilling to accept age stereotypes.




In these and other tails, expect the unexpected. The characters ride the roller coaster of life and to voyage with them is certainly worth
the effort.
