From the Rooftops (and other stories) (To be published 15th May)

FtR

The Support series comes to a close with the story of the last days of the Mala Voluntad Express.  The staff are used to investigating frivolous local stories, so when they stumble across a sinister conspiracy, they don’t know what to do with it.  As they try their best to rise to the occasion, it becomes increasingly clear that this might turn out to be a suicide mission.

Also included are three shorter stories, both horrifying and heartwarming by turns.  A young woman tries to destroy the symbol of her terrifying grandfather’s power, a mother makes a half-hearted attempt to reconnect with her long-lost daughter, and two outcasts form a bond that will change both their lives over the course of a day.  It might all end in a colossal mess that nobody will want to clean up, but, most of the time, the experience is more than worth it.

From the Rooftops and other stories is the fifth and final book in the “Support” series, a group of interconnected stories set in the same time and place.
