The Way We Are : Dark Tales from the Himalayas

Presented in this collection are fourteen stories from quaint little towns nestled amid the foggy hills in the Himalayas. These delightfully sinister tales explore life, love, death, loss, and friendship through a dark lens. From the dead looking over the living to astrological pre-dictions gone horribly wrong, sibling rivalry, monsters within, wicked love, a visitation by the devil, farewells, and reminiscences to unlikely knights in shining armour, The Way We Are brings you stories about typical hill people confronted by untypical twists in their lives.
