"I didn't intend for Alex to be in my book, he just appeared, sort of uninvited, as he always seems to in real life." Master of the written word Pete Bellotte presents twenty-two short stories exploring the limitless range of behaviour that people are capable of. Amusing, perplexing, dark-minded, or even hilarious, the characters inhabiting this universe have just one thing in common: a determination to challenge expectations and upset the norm. You'll never see them coming. In their own way, all of them - liars and murderers, heroes and romantics - fight back against the forces, right or wrong, that work against them. They defy convention...Break the bonds...Unround the circle.
