Description
Two shop assistants are disturbed by the behaviour of a girl who displays an unusual interest in insects. A train driver is traumatised by a fatal incident when he is driving a train. When a murder happens near his home a pensioner, suffering from cognitive decline, wonders if he witnessed an event that led to the murder. A burglar, during a robbery, stumbles upon an object that leads to a terrible discovery. The rivalry between twin sisters leads to destruction. A pharmacist finds himself in deadly conflict with the IRA during the War of Independence in Ireland. A traveller gets caught up in the armed struggle during the War of Independence in Ireland.
These are some of the stories in a collection that spans contemporary Britain and Ireland and twentieth-century Ireland.

`Bizarre and wondrous collection of short stories.` Dani.
`I love reading short stories when the opportunity comes along. I was drawn to the story The Maze, with a boy hearing a mobile phone inside the maze. Ca you imagine how hard it would be to find a mobile phone that is ringing. Can you imagine being in a maze hearing a mobile phone and trying to find it.
What has amazed me about this book is that the author has packed in so much detail in all the stories. I can`t believe how author has the gift to write so much information into the story The Diary in sixteen and a half pages. The Diary is my favourite because it was a crime story with an amazing twist in the tale. But of course to say anything more about this brilliant short story would give too much away.
These are some of the stories with two of them being a true story, the other eight are fictional stories about different topics.
I most certainly recommend the book Maze as it has some amazing stories.

An interesting story collection that gives me, as a Swede, new insights into the conflict between Ireland and Great Britain. The stories are a bit bizarre but enjoyable.
Thank you to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for this free e-ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.
