Nightmare Seasons
A new season, and the Grim Reaper smiles in anticipation of the harvest to come. No one is safe, no one can be trusted. The lovestruck office boy, the beautiful little girl clutching a posy of violets, the faceless motorcycle gang all seem harmless enough, and yet. Nameless fears stir uneasily, terror bubbles to the surface. and the nightmare is unleashed. Enter the world of Oxrun Station, where evil lurks in unexpected corners, where nerves are stretched to breaking point, where every season brings a nightmare more blood-curdling than the last. Four novellas, each taking as its theme one of the seasons of the year, recount the weird happenings that take place in the fantasy town of Oxrun Station.

Delors
Since 1985, when Jacques Delors became President of the European Commission, no politician has made a bigger impact on Western Europe. But while his successes encouraged countries outside the Community to seek membership, they also provoked a wave of anti-Brussels sentiment in the 1990s. As The Economist's Brussels correspondent, Charles Grant had unique access to Jacques Delors, his friends and enemies, and the European institutions. This is the first major biography of the man who, rising from the humblest of origins, became the architect of the new Europe. It is also a fascinating and revealing analysis of how Brussels, the house that Jacques built, really works.

The Pet
Teenagers are being slaughtered by the Howler, a serial killer who stops in small towns just long enough to kill, just long enough to tear apart a family and a community. When he strikes in Ashford, the town reacts-setting limits on teens' activities, monitoring who goes where-and parents become paranoid. Seventeen-year-old Don Boyd doesn't need the grief. He's already under siege-he's got family trouble, girl trouble, trouble with his high school classes and trouble with the jocks who rule the school. Surely the Howler will kill someone else, somewhere else, and then Don can go back to trying to escape notice. But the Howler likes Ashford. And one frosty autumn night, the Howler chooses Don as his next victim. The attack is swift-but it doesn't go as planned. Suddenly the killer and the boy are surrounded by an unnatural mist, by green fire, by the sound of iron striking iron. And then the real horror begins.
