The third volume of the reprint of Tanith Lee's Colouring Book Series in omnibus form. The third volume in this set of psychological thrillers, with occasional touches of the supernatural, includes:
Cruel Pink: Emenie lives alone. Her vocation is that of a serial killer. Rod, though, has a dreary life, working at an unrewarding job, there is something uneasy hanging over him. Is it the wardrobe? Klova, young, beautiful and living on benign handouts, in a sort of Science Fantasy existence of sprints and liquid-silver...Until she meets the challenging Coal. And then there is the other one... or are there two?
Turquoiselle: Not much is what it seems. The job can be dull, but quite demanding - it involves a lot of driving, often very long hours, an always erratic schedule. Not to mention social duties with certain important clients. The work is lucrative, however. He can easily afford the house in Kent, and the costly wants of Donna, his partner. For someone like Carver, dragged up through a deprived and abused childhood, not such a bad achievement. It's just that suddenly things are running less smoothly.
We are also pleased to include the fantasy short story Green Wallpaper, which previously only appeared in the collection The Secret History of Vampires in 2007.
