“The story is a gripping one from the off, plunging us straight into the news room of the central character, journalist Sylvia Bernstein and a disturbing mystery, left unsolved by her deceased predecessor. When she decides to dig for more, the sense of foreboding kicks in and the tension steps up and up as we discover the grisly truth.” — KEV HARRISON, author of Cinders Of A Blind Man Who Could See

“The Town That Feared Dusk is one of those short stories that manages to pack such a punch in so few pages, I was beyond impressed by its impact. Calvin Demmer is a pro at flash fiction, and I’ve loved everything I’ve read by him so far, so I knew Dusk would be good, but I didn’t know it would tell such a complex story so effortlessly.” — DESTINY BARBER, Howling Libraries
