Short description

A collection of short stories from horror writer, Marina Bridges, featuring four twisted tales where poking around for treasure in other peoples' trash goes horribly wrong.

Extended description

Careful what you dig out of the trash...

In "Catching the Worm," Meemaw holds a post-Apocalyptic yard sale, and customers best mind their manners, or else.

A pair of greedy pickers in "Cash For Trash" discover the hard way that some people want their treasures left buried.

A fascination with sideshows brings one collector face to face with her childhood obsession in "Giant's Ring."

In "Welcome to Welcome," auction-goers understand every auction house has its quirks, but in the town of Welcome, the quirks are downright dangerous.

Pickers, collectors, hoarders, junkers, antique hunters, call them what you will. They all share one thing in common -- they're addicted finding treasure in other peoples' trash. In this short story collection, horror writer, Marina Bridges, sends treasure hunters digging into dark, dangerous corners to discover their hearts' desires... and their worst nightmares.

I enjoyed the second and last story. They held my interest the most. I also enjoyed reading the author's comments at the end of each story. Looking forward to future ebooks from this author. BGregg
