A Firefighter Christmas Carol: And Other Stories

While exploring the darkest impulses of man, this collection is both “… sinister and gripping.” ~ Raju Chacko, Reedsy reviewer.\nElliot is a burned-out firefighter on the verge of suicide in a modern reimagining of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. Can a succession of ghostly visitors one Christmas Eve help Elliot face his demons before it’s too late?

A firefighter fails to heed an otherworldly warning (Death Alarm). A happily married man spirals into obsession over a comment by an internet troll (CatchTime). A man runs for his life down a dark country lane pursued by a stranger with murder in mind (Skelwaller Lane). A paramedic’s haunting secret threatens to destroy her life (DOA).
Written from the soul of a firefighter who has seen his own struggles, A Firefighter Christmas Carol and Other Stories is “… a brilliant read.” ~ Billie, Goodreads Reviewer.\n“Not for the faint of heart. This author has a fantastic way of leading you on a path that seems sound and then pulling the rug from under your feet. Douglas R. Brown has a wonderful writing style. Definitely a recommended read.” ~ Marion, Goodreads Reviewer.\nTo join Elliot and the others on their journeys, click your desired format from the above boxes and buy now.
