Late at night darkness is punctuated by stars; the river, by lights. Gathered from around the world, EditRED’s second collection has twenty-three new stories by the emerging lights in contemporary short fiction. Contemplative, reflective, and disruptive these dark modern tales shine out of the shadows to flicker across continents. Their messages ripple like morse code mirrored on water, moving upstream and cast over oceans. Decipher their meaning.
