Some involve crime and violence, most involve sex; and animals are often central to the plot. \"Stormy, Mon Amour\" is about a woman who has given birth to a mermaid and seeks to reunite with her dolphin lover. \"ReBecca\" is the story of conjoined twins and their first sexual experience. \"Boozanne, Lemme Be,\" from the viewpoint of a petty thief, focuses on his secret life in a couple's home when they are at work. \"Must Bite \" is a grizzly tale of greed, murder, and ape behavior. Eight other stories contain similarly original plots and off-kilter characters. Megan Abbott provides the Introduction and Michael Connelly the Afterword.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 228\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.48 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 16, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44075331092615,"sku":"9780990536505","price":16.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/s5rvXBCg6_9780990536505.webp?v=1772902184","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/florida-gothic-stories-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
